Datang New Giants

Chapter 29 I'm Really Not a Ruanfan King

Lu Ting had already guessed that Second Uncle was unhappy, so he hurriedly went up to meet him and said, "This is a temporary idea, a bit hasty, and I haven't had time to discuss it with Second Uncle."

The second uncle looked Lu Ting up and down, sat on the horse harness in the courtyard, and said with a livid face, "A temporary idea? What's the idea?"

"For bookkeeping, you can earn less than two pennies a month, and you're only in your early twenties a year. Although you won't starve to death, you won't be able to sustain it. It's better to work hard while you're young. Second uncle is right, revitalize The heavy responsibility of the third room falls on the younger generation, so we can’t just do a small bookkeeping while the guest is here.”

The revitalization of Suzhou Lu's third bedroom was ordered by the second uncle, and it is just right to move out now, so the second uncle can't slap himself in the face.

Sure enough, the second uncle with a livid face didn't know what to say when he heard it, he snorted coldly, and quickly asked, "What are your plans now?"

As soon as he asked this question, Lu Ting quickly said: "The study of ethnology will not be open for a while. The younger generation wants to study abroad. The ancient books say it well. It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. While you are young, you can learn more. Maybe you will meet someone when you go out." When you come to the nobleman, you will be able to achieve great success just around the corner."

"Going out to study?" The second uncle stared at Lu Ting suspiciously, as if he didn't quite believe Lu Ting's words.

Lu Ting nodded and said: "Move a tree to die, and move a person to live. Maybe this move will bring out a wealth and glory."

If you want to travel far away, you don't just take the money and close the door, and you can go on a trip as soon as you say it. You have to go to the government office to go through the process of proving your identity. If you have parents, you can’t go out without someone to take care of them. If your parents are not going to travel far, it’s not empty talk. If you want to go to Chang’an, you can’t get around your second uncle who is Lizheng. He also needs to sign and agree on the family.

"Don't worry, Second Uncle is playing sloppy at this moment. If you don't tell the truth, I will definitely not sign for you, a little bastard." Second Uncle said angrily.

"The truth? These are the truth." Lu Ting said calmly.

The matter between me and Wang Gui has too much to do with it, even my second uncle can't talk about it.

"Going out to study?" The second uncle sneered: "Who do you think you are, a son of a famous family or an official of the court? Go if you want, go out, get food, clothing, housing, transportation, whatever you want is free, what should you do if there are robbers on the road? What if you are made things difficult? What if something goes wrong?"

Fugong Er rebelled in Danyang, and the military disaster in Suzhou, the cruelty of the war is vividly remembered, who knows if there will be soldiers or robbers on the road, Lu Ting said that he went out to study as soon as his mind got hot, and the second uncle even asked a few questions on the spot what to do.

If you don't do good errands, you are going to heaven, and besides, how old is Lu Ting, just a child, he really has nothing to say and can't do things well.

"Second Uncle, I'm not young anymore, and I can take good care of myself. I heard that when Second Uncle was my age, didn't he also go out to travel and study?" Lu Ting changed his voice and put the topic on Second Uncle.

The second uncle was also a restless young man when he was young. He once traveled for three years. These three years of travel not only broadened his horizons, but also gave him a lot of bragging rights. It is said that Lin Zhengshi was also acquainted during his travels. , Unfortunately, there was no result at that time.

"I have been traveling for three years, and I am still a small Lizheng. Don't think that you can pick up gold when you go out and walk around, and you can meet noble people with casual politeness. Now the road is not smooth. It is better to be quiet than to move. You can do your duty at home. Good." The second uncle refused without even thinking about it.

Lu Ting hesitated for a moment, but still stiffened his hair and said: "Everyone has different experiences, maybe the younger generation will have better luck. Second uncle is also a sensible person, so I have to ask second uncle to help with a settlement."

The second uncle snorted coldly, stared at Lu Ting and said, "This old man eats more salt than you eat rice. Needless to say, these run-on old men, when this old man went on a trip, he went with the classmates of the Lu family in Jiangdong, plus guards." There are more than a hundred entourages, and there are relatives and friends along the way to guide and entertain, so there is no problem in self-protection."

Having said that, the second uncle raised his voice and asked, "I ask you, do you have streaky horses?"

"No?"

"Do you have a lot of money?"

"No."

"Do you have knight-errant skills, or do you have warrior followers?"

"...No." Lu Ting shook his head helplessly.

"Then why go out to study?" The second uncle waved his hands impatiently and said, "Just study hard at home. First, you can get a good reputation. It's also convenient to go out. If you want to come back to live, the old man will help you." I beg you to let you go back, anyway, there will be no one to hire for that position."

Lu Ting knew that if he didn't persuade his second uncle, he would definitely not be able to leave. He would not be able to do anything if he just went through the troubles. He rolled his eyes and soon had an idea. He looked around and said in a low voice, "Second uncle, junior! Going out this time is actually for the Suzhou Lu family."

The second uncle's tense face finally loosened a bit, and he said hesitantly, "For the Lu family of Suzhou? How do you say that?"

"A few days ago, a sinful old man came. He was the Crown Prince of the East Palace, King Zhongyun? Second Uncle is always well-informed, have you heard about this?"

"The old man must have heard about such a big event. I also heard that you make beds and fold quilts for others, and even cook and feed the medicine yourself. Heh heh, I have never seen you treat your elders so well." The second uncle was not happy. say.

Lu Ting smiled in embarrassment, and deliberately changed the topic: "This old man Wang is grateful to me for taking care of him like this, saying that it is a pity that I am a guest bookkeeper, and advised me to go out to visit famous teachers, and recommended me to study in the Wang clan. When studying, the younger generation thinks that although Old Man Wang committed a crime, his family, relatives and friends are still there, so it is not difficult to sell him, so... "

"Wang Zhongyun recommends you to study at the Wang Clan School?" Second Uncle's somewhat cloudy eyes lit up, his waist couldn't help straightening up, and his whole body suddenly regained his energy.

Wang Gui came from the Wang family in Taiyuan, and was an official in the second dynasty. Before the accident, the official worshiped the prince Zhongyun. The accumulation is amazing, but the Wang family has a large number of talents. Can its family study be inferior?Entering the Wang Clan Studies, but not passing the exam. Knowing those classmates with extraordinary backgrounds is such a great network. If you can enter the Wang Clan Studies, let alone students, it is worthwhile to sit on the floor.

".Yes." In order to convince the second uncle, Lu Ting stiffened his hair and agreed.

Get the past first, and then talk about the future.

The second uncle nodded slowly and said, "It seems that the rumors outside are true."

"Rumor? What rumor?" Lu Ting asked casually while picking up a bowl to drink water.

"You are the king of soft rice."

With a puff, Lu Ting just drank the water from his mouth and squirted it out suddenly. Because of the squirt, he choked a few times, and finally calmed down. He didn't care to wipe off the water from his mouth, and asked quickly: "What is soft rice?" Wang? Second Uncle, who is chewing his tongue in the back?"

What's going on, I just quit my job for a day and stayed at home all the time, why is it rumored outside that I am the "King of Soft Rice", who did I provoke?
Seeing Lu Ting's reaction, the second uncle was a little surprised and said: "Didn't you tell others yourself? The doctor said that you have a bad stomach and want to eat soft rice. The girl from your family spoke so euphemistically, she really deserves to be a person who has studied. Wang Gui recommended you to study the family studies of the Wang family, and nine times out of ten, she has this in mind. You must know that the study of the family studies of the Wang family is very difficult. It's not easy for a married woman of the Wang family to send her son in, but you can actually get in, yes, the old man made the right move in sending you to Kelaiju, otherwise you wouldn't have met the down-and-out Wang Zhongyun."

Before Lu Ting could defend himself, the second uncle stood up, patted Lu Ting on the shoulder and said, "I thought you were not motivated, so I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to eat well or sleep well. I didn't expect you to eat soft food without compromising, Second Uncle It's really gratifying."

No way, eating soft rice is also called making progress?
Seeing the second uncle's gratified expression, Lu Ting almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. God, I want to go to Chang'an to hold the golden thigh. In order to get it smoothly, I followed the second uncle's words. Hei became the king of soft rice.

Wait a minute, the second uncle said that this is a rumor from the outside world, and he just said it as a joke in order to ease the atmosphere when he was teaching the little maidservant to solve the problem. The nicknames are all chosen for herself, it must have been deliberately spread by the little maidservant.

Could it be that the maidservant Xiaoqiao found out that she had been duped, and then deliberately took revenge?
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. If this thing gets out, it will be labeled as "soft rice", how will you mess around in the future, it's too poisonous, it is said that it is the most poisonous to women's hearts, Lu Ting is aware of it.

Lu Ting was in a hurry, and quickly explained: "Second Uncle, I misunderstood this matter. This junior really doesn't want to eat soft food, and he has no such plan. There must be a misunderstanding."

"Yes" the second uncle clapped his hands suddenly, his old face turned into a flower with a smile, and said happily: "This is the attitude you want. If this thing is not done, it will change its way every day, like the Wang family. Everyone is a big family, the most important thing is to save face, if you don’t change your post for a day, don’t admit it even if you are killed, lest someone will be jealous and make trouble secretly.”

The second uncle is not so angry that he is just talking ironically. Lu Ting quickly said: "Second uncle, don't worry, the younger generation knows that this matter will not affect the Lu family in Suzhou. If necessary, the younger generation will draw a clear line, and the second uncle can also temporarily put me away. Kick out the family tree."

"Dare?" The second uncle was furious, and yelled loudly: "If you find a good family, you don't even want your ancestors? Let me tell you, if we are really married, you will be the head of the clan. You will be married to the Wang family. That is to guard a big golden mountain, and if someone leaks a little bit of it through the fingers, it is enough for the Lu family in Suzhou to eat and drink."

Do you want to abandon your clan when you become rich?Don't even want to.

Lu Ting stared at this scene a little stunned, opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say for a while.

I underestimate the influence of the seven clans and five surnames and their allure to ordinary people. Many people seem to be possessed, and they are proud of marrying five surnames and five surnames. They are second uncles who are still in their 50s. Entering the flowers is to get involved with the seven clans and five surnames.
