Chapter 22: Old Woman 22

“Ridiculous, you are a bright frame, the old man has never had these thoughts!”

“Not to mention other things, the book teaches the younger generation to learn to respect the elders, but looking at your rude behavior, you can keep the teacher’s teaching in your heart, and people without morality are not worthy of participation take an exam!”

Old man Liu clutched his chest, which heaved violently, and shivered with anger, making the people watching the fun all worried about him, for fear that he would not be able to take a breath, and then fell back directly go.

At the same time, they saw an old man being so angry, and what Liu old man said sounded reasonable, and then they looked at Zhang Congming with disapproval.

People always like to look at problems from the perspective of the weak, and will not explore whether there are other deep meanings in it, and then be drawn by other people’s words or phrases. When Zhang Cong Cong didn’t dare to speak out just now, they would be partial, but once the momentum surpassed Old Man Liu, they would naturally turn to him.

“Dad, we are all here, we won’t let them leave without an explanation today. Although we are all ordinary people, we can’t let others bully them.”

Seeing that everyone’s hearts were on their side, the two sons who had been standing behind Old Man Liu spoke up.

Old man Liu clutched his chest, panting desperately, staggered backwards and fell onto his son, his eyes staring blankly at the past, his melancholy words were full of disappointment for the current students, ” The old man never imagined that today’s students would be so disrespectful to teachers and respect the Tao, the world is getting worse and the world is getting worse.”

These words touched the hearts of the common people. In their eyes, people with knowledge are to be valued, and what they say is correct. Compared with Zhang Cong Ming, who is only known as a child prodigy in the academy, they believe more in Old Man Liu, an old gentleman they have known for a long time.

Recalling what Zhang Cong said just now, they felt more and more that what Old Man Liu said was right, and immediately spoke out to help.

“Little brother, if you stole it, you stole it. You return the thing, and then admit your mistake. Why so quibble.”

“That’s right, although old man Liu said that there was something wrong just now, but these stolen things are precious things, and he is also worried about the reputation of the students, don’t be too stubborn already.”

Everyone denounced the crusade, and they all thought that Mr. Liu was right, and Zhang Congming was lying.

“I’m not afraid of shadows, even if you report to the county government, I will say I didn’t steal!”

Faced with the unrelenting entanglement of Liu old man and the townspeople who indiscriminately pointed the sharp blade at him, Zhang Congming knew that he could solve the problem by bowing his head and sincerely admitting his mistake. Even if he has a guilty conscience, he is even more committed to the false fact of stealing things.

He is not a person who pretends to be lofty, and the situation at home also makes him know that the trial is moderate, but he is forced to abandon his dignity in such a plain way, he can’t do it!

If it was grandma, what would she do?

As soon as Zhang Cong Cong had this idea, he shook his head and shook it off.

At this moment, an elderly voice broke the deadlock.

“My old lady, I have lived to this age, and I have never been so brazen as you.”

The brothers and sisters Zhang Congming looked over and saw that it was grandma coming back, so they hurried to her side, Zhang Congming breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised in a low voice: “Grandma, you are back.”

Now in his subconscious, as long as his grandma is there, he is the safest.

“Grandma, he bullied us, said that we stole things, and scolded my brother for not being worthy of studying!” Zhang Xiaohong is a girl, and she came back after being wronged and backed up. Naturally, she would make a small report immediately, incidentally Wiping away her tears, her pitiful appearance is heart-wrenching.

“Are you afraid?” Ning Qiu raised her hand and patted her little head lightly.

After a long time of wind and rain, it has turned black, and it can be said that this is a pair of hands full of traces of peasant life.

!”

“Not bad.” Ning Qiu praised, which made Zhang Xiaohong so happy that he couldn’t find the North, where could he just pretended to be calm.

Ning Qiu’s sudden appearance directly interrupted the old man Liu’s clumsy exercise. He widened his eyes, and immediately looked away when he met Ning Qiu, feeling very guilty Obvious.

From this, it can be seen that old man Liu seems to be afraid of facing Ning Qiu, and Ning Qiu’s next sentence also clears up everyone’s confusion.

“Old man Liu, when you framed Lao Zhang back then, you also used this trick. Now to frame my grandson, you still use the same trick. After so many years, it seems that the lessons you learned at the beginning, You forgot to clean it up.”

Old man Liu was about the same age as the old Zhang who had passed away. The two were still classmates back then, so the old lady who was his wife naturally heard Lao Zhang talking about interesting things about studying.

The old Zhang also had good academic performance at the beginning, and the old man Liu was the one who was at the bottom. However, this person did not have the heart to learn, on the contrary, it was easy to be jealous and go the wrong way.

That year was also an exam. Out of jealousy, Old Man Liu used a despicable method to frame Lao Zhang, but he was finally found out, and Old Man Liu was kicked out of the exam room, but when At that time, the Liu family still had some money in the town, so this matter came to an end.

This is why Mr. Liu felt guilty subconsciously when he saw the old lady. At that time, he was kicked out of the examination room, ridiculed by his classmates, disappointed by the academy, and abused by his family. Come.

Even after the old lady came to the door, the neighbors knew about it, and his face was thrown into the stinky ditch. He did not dare to go out for several months.

So old man Liu resents Lao Zhang, but he is even more afraid of confronting the old lady, one thing will be another thing, when the best person encounters a person who is more excellent and more sloppy than you, he can only bow down .

It has been a long time since the incident. Except for the two of them, the younger generation did not know the situation, so they were confused about what Ning Qiu said, but they could guess. It turns out that there are other things in there.

The main reason is that he experienced this old lady once when she was young, and it is still fresh in his memory.

“Old man Liu, I’m afraid you forgot, when I came to town to meet you a few days ago, you also said that in order to congratulate my grandson for being able to participate in next year’s township examination at the youngest age, we need to prepare some Gifts. It seems that those are all ready, but I think I am too old, so forget about it. When Lao Zhang passed the exam, you came to the door to congratulate you. Time flies so fast.” Ning Qiu glanced at it. The things placed on the counter brought the situation back in just a few words, and made it difficult for the old man to fall into the left and right sides, and there was only a way to nod.

The old man Liu is completely denialable, but the literati arrogantly valued his reputation the most. A word of “Mr.” can make you happy for a long time.

Once the style of the county is known to the county government, it will not work to take the money.

Because today’s Sheng Dynasty is very strict with the character of the candidates, once they are found, they will be severely punished! This is why he framed Zhang Congming in public. Once he commits theft, he can find a way to put his grandson in the vacated quota.

But now he can really fight small, but he has recruited an old man. He also didn’t think that Zhang Congming, the grandson of Zhang’s grandson, was Zhang’s grandson!

“Hahaha, what the old lady said is, look at my rusty head, I forget all these things.” After thinking about it, the old man chose to compromise, he bowed to Zhang Congming, “This man just doesn’t remember things when he’s old. I hope the little brother doesn’t care about it. The old man can’t make up for it here.”

With the passage of time, the turmoil of the year was finally calmed down, and he did not want to be mentioned again and delay future generations.

Zhang Cong Cong glanced at Ning Qiu and got a nod. He also raised his hand to bow, and bowed to show etiquette, “The younger generation has some rude words just now, please don’t blame Mr.

The scene where the commotion was almost reported to the officials subsided, and the people onlookers also walked away one after another, and all of a sudden the front of the pen and ink shop was quiet again.

The words have been promised. The old man Liu took out the baby who was framed. If the frame was not successful, it was taken away easily by Ning Qiu. He just rolled his eyes and fainted, it was his son He woke up in a hurry, but shed bitter tears.

He and the Zhang family are born guilty!

Back to Yangchun Noodle Restaurant, the two younger brothers who were originally assigned to follow Zhang Congming also hurriedly took back the things that Zhang Congming asked for help to buy. After being sternly questioned by Gu San, he learned what happened , they were so frightened that they hurriedly begged for mercy, and drove Ning Qiu and the others back in a carriage who had made up for it.

In the carriage, Zhang Congming held the ink ingot in both hands, with joy in his eyes, “The view is smooth and delicate, the smell is pure, and the sound is clear, this is the upper ink ingot.”

Being able to use good ink when reading and writing is the yearning of the literati.

But good ink sticks are expensive and the family can’t afford to support them. He uses the most common ink sticks, which are of poor quality and smell bad. Dizzy and swollen, and can spit out if you can’t ventilate.

Zhang Congming ignored his sister’s disapproval. He put the Modian away very preciously, and then touched the soft blanket under his buttocks, the feeling of sitting on the carriage, and the The car is completely different, and it doesn’t hurt at all.

“Grandma, I will try my best to be admitted to fame, and I will be as good as you in the future!” Zhang Congming looked up at the old lady’s profile and made up her mind.

Ning Qiu is closing her eyes and resting. This old lady’s body is getting worse and worse. It seems that she has drained all her energy after she fell ill. Shaking.

Hearing Zhang Congming’s words, she opened her eyes and turned to look at him, “Famous? For you, what is fame.”

Zhang Congming blurted out without hesitation, “Title on the golden list, put on an official hat, and be a parent official who thinks about the people.”

Achieving an official position and a good career is the pursuit of all students, and his ideas are no different.

“You’re right.” Ning Qiu didn’t deny it, but she said slowly: “But if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if a person is perfect, there will be no disciples. It’s easy to wear an official hat. But it is very difficult to deal with this or that official hat. If you want to be a good parent official, you must first be prepared to stand in the way of others and sacrifice your life. ”

Since ancient times, the imperial court has been built with white bones, and those who can stand firm have to pay a huge price.

Hearing these words, Zhang Congming fell into silence.

He is not shaking his beliefs, but thinking about what to do to achieve his pursuit.

There are too many difficult things in the world. If no one is willing to do it, then what use is the book and pen in his hand!
