A scholar becomes a landlord
Chapter 13
"The kindness of adults will never be forgotten by students." After Wei Le came to ancient times, he had no goals in life. It can be said that he was aimless and lived day by day.But what Xuezheng said today gave him a goal, and he hoped to work towards it.
Xuezheng nodded, he likes people who are knowledgeable but not proud.To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have really doubted that a young man who was admitted as a scholar in his teens would not be proud at all. Instead, he was very humble, and his words and deeds made people feel good.As long as they are not blind, they will not have the slightest dislike for such a person.
Waving to let the maid who waited on him go out, Wei Le was really not used to being waited on by others, after all, he was not the original owner, and he was not the son of the Hou's mansion who was used to being served by others since he was a child.
Washing his face and rinsing his mouth, he does everything by himself. Even though his life is good now, he doesn't want to be a second-class disabled person who has to be waited on for everything.
After removing his coat and cloak, Wei Le lay down in the warm blanket.
"Wolf skin? It seems that we still underestimate this child."
Mrs. Xuezheng stroked the smooth wolf fur. This leather was well tanned and of the highest quality, and it was very good for making cloaks or cloaks.
"Well, make me a cloak later!"
It happens to be worn during the Chinese New Year, and there are dedicated people who do the sewing at home, and this cloak is of course no exception.If you take it out for the Chinese New Year, you may not be able to wear it. It’s different if you make it at home. You can always get out before the Chinese New Year by rushing to work day and night.
"Okay, okay, look at how proud you are."
Isn't it just a leather bag given by a student? See how proud he is.
"That is, I am very optimistic about him, if we also have children..."
Xuezheng looked lonely. His biggest regret was not being able to have a child with his wife, but he was not willing to ask another woman to have a child.
The wife was married by him through three matchmakers and six hires, and he swore to treat her well. How could he find another woman just because he has no children!
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." The madam looked guilty. If it wasn't for the fact that she didn't have a mother-in-law, she would have been forced to take a concubine for her husband because she still couldn't give birth to a child.
"It's not your fault, maybe I'm the one with the problem!"
Men with partial births can't find a doctor if they have problems, one is because of face, and the other is because of self-esteem.After all, he is in the officialdom, if there are bad rumors spread, it will affect his official career.
"Nonsense, how could it be you."
Doesn't she know her husband's body?Much stronger than her body that gets sick as soon as winter comes.If it wasn't for her, the husband wouldn't have to be released from the capital to become an official.
Because she did not give birth to a son and a half daughter, she has always been the object of ridicule in the circle of ladies in the capital.On the surface, everyone didn't say anything, but secretly, no one laughed at her, and even called her a hen that couldn't lay eggs.As the housewife, even if she only had a daughter, it would be better than not having one, so her life in the capital was not easy, and because of this, her husband accepted the release.
Moreover, because he has no children, his husband has not had much ambition, and his official position has never been very high, and he is only at the fifth rank until now.Originally, if he stayed in the capital, with his husband's ability, he could be promoted to the fourth-rank magistrate soon, but he chose such an inconspicuous official position to come to such a small place to do education and administration.
It would have been better without her...
Madam secretly cried, feeling ashamed that she was dragging her husband down.
Having no heirs in ancient times was an imperfect thing after all, but Wei Le knew nothing about it.In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether he has children or not, the important thing is that he lives happily.Many people in modern times don't even want to get married, not to mention having children. Wei Le was also a person who didn't want to get married before.It was only after he came to ancient times that he had the idea of getting married and a daughter-in-law, but in fact this idea was not very strong, even though he had even built a place for his children to live in.
The next day, Wei Le got up early in the morning and moved his hands and feet casually in the yard a few times.Living in the county is really inconvenient, there is not even a place to run.Fortunately, he didn't need to live here for a long time, otherwise he would have a headache.
"My lord and madam, the students pay their respects to the two of you."
Wei Le bowed his hands and bowed in salute, and was supported by his wife.
"You don't need so many etiquettes, just treat it as being in your own home and relax."
Madam dragged him to the side hall, the maid came to report just now, breakfast has been set.
"Hey~"
Wei Le was a little at a loss, he always felt that Mrs. Xuezheng treated him better, her words and deeds revealed a kind of closeness.
"Sit down, breakfast depends on what you like, eat whatever you want."
There are a lot of food on the restaurant, including porridge, buns, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk and a few side dishes.Picking two of them at will can make people full, so Wei Le was dumbfounded when he saw such a large table of food.
What if he wants to eat?Wei Le said in a very tangled way.So I asked the maid to serve a bowl of porridge, put a steamed bun, a steamed bun, and a deep-fried dough stick on the plate in front of me, and ordered a bowl of soy milk, and ate it with side dishes.At this time, Xuezheng and his wife had already eaten a lot, and the two finally drank the porridge slowly, while secretly looking at Wei Le.
"how?"
Wei Le felt two eyes look up.
"Nothing, is it ready?"
Madam covered her mouth and chuckled, they had already put down the bowls and chopsticks, waiting for Wei Le to finish eating.
"Well, it's delicious, thank you madam."
Wei Le wiped his mouth and showed a big smile, illuminating Xuezheng and his wife's long-dried hearts.If they have children, they should laugh like this too!
I heard that he came to the county seat alone, without parents, but still has such a cheerful personality, it is really not easy.
After breakfast, Wei Le played two games of chess with Xuezheng.But the original owner will.So he played while thinking, and the speed was not fast.But the result is quite good, Xuezheng has already lost two games.
"Brat, I don't know what it means to respect the elderly!"
Xuezheng was not very happy when he lost chess. Of course, this was not a fight against Wei Le, but he simply didn't like losing chess. You must know that his chess skills are very good, but he lost in the hands of a young man, and he felt a little embarrassed .
"Husband, you are too childish. Xiao Le, leave him alone and let him play by himself!"
The madam was sewing beside her, and she couldn't do anything about her occasionally childish husband.
"My lord, if the students deliberately give way to the lord, they will be even more disrespectful to the lord!"
Wei Le put the chess pieces back in the chess box and put them away, and then said leisurely.
"..."
What he said was so reasonable that Xuezheng could not refute it.Indeed, if Wei Le intentionally made himself uncomfortable, not only would it not make him happy, but it would make him even more angry.
"Hmph, the brat will say some good things, I don't need you to let me, let's come again."
Xuezheng still wanted to start the game, but unfortunately it was getting late, and Wei Le should go back.
"I've disturbed you for the past two days. Thank you, Mrs. Madam, for your hospitality."
Wei Le bent down to salute.
"..."
Madam was very reluctant, even Xuezheng was not as excited as before, he was like a deflated balloon, lacking energy.
"Do you have to go? Can't you stay for two more days?"
In the house where they live, there are only servants besides their husband and wife.Wei Le's arrival made them feel the long-lost joy. They were really not used to this person leaving suddenly.
"This……"
For a moment, Wei Le saw the loneliness of the modern left-behind elderly in the two of them. He couldn't refuse, but he couldn't live in Xuezheng's house forever!If that's the case, something will happen.
Hey, I sighed deeply in my heart.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, I don't know if your lord and madam are interested in visiting the humble house."
Wei Le could only think of such a way.There are still a lot of things to do at home, and he can't be away for too long.It's just about to celebrate the New Year, so it shouldn't be a problem to invite Xuezheng and his wife to my home to celebrate the New Year!
The problem is serious. Looking at the big bags and small bags, with several Xuezheng couples behind them, Wei Le clutches his stomach—it hurts.
Sitting in their family's carriage with Xuezheng and his wife, Wei Le's mule cart became a puller.The things he bought alone filled more than half of the car, not to mention the luggage of Xuezheng and his wife.
"This is my home, Madam, please get out of the car!"
The carriage stopped in front of Wei's house, and Wei Le helped them get off the carriage.
"Not bad, but I don't know what's going on inside."
Xuezheng was wearing ordinary uniforms, it was impossible to wear official uniforms when he came out to play.Just standing in front of Wei Zhai, stroking his beard and nodding, it was bigger than their house in the county.
"Haha, it's so-so, it can accommodate people." Wei Le laughed dryly as he helped his wife walk up the steps.Of course, it is impossible to compare with the politicians. The furnishings in the room are very simple, and even the furnishings in a few guest rooms are worthless.
Wei Le's living place is spacious, even if Xuezheng and his wife bring a few maidservants over, they still have a place to live.Ask Li Dahai to burn the kang in the main room of the second courtyard and the two adjacent rooms, and Mrs. Xuezheng will stay in his room at night. The room he lives in is the best decorated and relatively large in the whole house.
The servants and maids live in the two rooms next to them, so they can serve them closely.
As for himself, he lived directly in the study room, and took a bath directly in the front yard, which was only a few steps away.
"Oh, it's really good! Husband, what do you think!"
Madam visited Wei Le's house. Needless to say, they didn't like the decorations.But what is rare is this comfort, even getting up at night in winter will not feel cold, everything is done in the house.It couldn't be better for the elderly people like them.
"Is this okay? This is your room!"
Asking the owner to let the main room out, I feel a bit like a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
"It doesn't matter, the whole house is comfortable here. I will live in the study in the front yard. I am young, so it's okay to walk more. If the adults and madam freeze, it will be the student's fault."
Besides, this is the countryside, and it's hard to even call a doctor when you're sick.It happened that the villagers would come to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, and he could greet them in the front yard so that no one would disturb Xuezheng and his wife.
Xuezheng nodded, he likes people who are knowledgeable but not proud.To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have really doubted that a young man who was admitted as a scholar in his teens would not be proud at all.
