Early the next morning, Lu Qingyi and Shen Wenchang bid farewell to the two elders at the Lu's house. When they got home, their buttocks were still hot, and they heard the maid in front of them talk about the magistrate's visit to the house.

While peeling the sunflower seeds for Lu Qingyi, Shen Wenchang asked, "We just came back, why did your father come with you? I don't know what to say to Erniang before, eh, tell me, will you sue us?" ?”

Lu Qingyi leaned back on the warm couch, holding a book in one hand and pinching sunflower seeds in the other.

"I don't think so. If we do something wrong, my father will directly teach me."

"How about I go and eavesdrop?" Shen Wenchang looked at Lu Qingyi and asked.

"If you are free, I will give you the warmth I gave you yesterday, or write a poem with plum as the theme, and I will correct it." Lu Qingyi kept her eyes on the book, and she could probably guess a little bit of the purpose of her father's visit, probably for The future development of the son-in-law is like this in Dazhou today. Women can stay at home, and men must start a career after they get married. Although Shen Wenchang is a woman, she is a man in the eyes of everyone.

"I have the right to think about it." Shen Wenchang threw away the sunflower seeds as soon as he heard that he had a problem.

Shen Wenchang stood up, pacing with his hands behind his back, sometimes murmuring, sometimes pulling his fingers.

Lu Qingyi didn't bother Shen Wenchang either, and quietly read the book aside.

"Young master is here to climb the mountains." Shen Wenchang chanted the first sentence facing the window with his hands behind his back.

Lu Qingyi stopped turning the pages of the book, raised her eyes to look at Shen Wenchang, saw the seriousness of the man, concealed what she wanted to say, and took a sip from the teacup beside her.

"I was surprised to see the plum blossom and jade pavilion." Shen Wenchang said, intoxicated himself, and then said: "Although there is no butterfly shadow on the flower body, the fragrance is already full of fragrance."

After Shen Wenchang finished it, he couldn't help but ran to the warm couch and sat down, looking at Lu Qingyi with piercing eyes, "How, how?"

Lu Qingyi looked Shen Wenchang up and down, and when she first heard the first sentence, she thought that this man had given back to her what he had learned yesterday.

"The whole thing is not bad. The fragrance of plum blossoms seems to have been smelled between the breaths. The rhyme is also possible, but in the end it is impractical to rhyme for the sake of rhyming."

"Where is it impractical?"

"Which mountain did you climb, and the courtyard?" Lu Qingyi teased, "Also, what was your first sentence?"

"Young master, come and climb the mountains!"

"You keep repeating." Lu Qingyi gave Shen Wenchang an angry look, "Although there are still many shortcomings in the poem, it is already very rare."

Shen Wenchang was praised and couldn't help but stood up and touched his stomach: "I found that there is more and more ink inside."

"The bamboo with an open heart has leaves that bow their heads." Seeing Shen Wenchang startled, Lu Qingyi couldn't help but persuade Shen Wenchang to be modest and guard against arrogance.

"The proud plum has no flowers on its back." Shen Wenchang turned around and said with a smile.

Lu Qingyi heard that the sunflower seeds she had just picked up in her hand fell off.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Lu Qingyi's expression changed, Shen Wenchang hurried forward to ask.

"What you said just now, did you just think about it?" Lu Qingyi took a closer look, and the confrontation was neat.

"No, grandpa often said to my cousin that a proud plum has no flowers on its back. I will remember it after listening to it once." Shen Wenchang is super confident in his memory.

"Really." Lu Qingyi was a little disappointed, but it's impossible to think about it, no one can match the pair so well overnight.

"Hey, but it's interesting to have such a couple just now. Grandpa taught me a few times before, so why don't you say one more thing, see if I can agree?" Shen Wenchang smiled and tugged on Lu Qingyi's sleeve.

"Hmm... the water flows out towards the stone edge." Lu Qingyi pondered for a moment and said.

Shen Wenchang stood up slowly after hearing the words: "What can water do?"

"Everything is fine." Lu Qingyi said with a smile.

Shen Wenchang paced, half a stick of incense passed.Just when Lu Qingyi felt sorry, Shen Wenchang came over excitedly and said, "Yes."

As Shen Wenchang spoke, he stroked Lu Qingyi's blue silk hair.

"What are you doing with my hair?"

Shen Wenchang said with a smile: "The water flows out towards the stone edge, and the wind blows from the hair to smell the fragrance. Hahahahahaha, that's right!"

Lu Qingyi thought about it carefully, and found that the correct way was correct, but it was a little nondescript. If the literati heard this, they would be annoyed that this person was not serious.

"Stone edge is still inappropriate for beautiful hair. It's better to change it to wind coming from flowers for fragrance."

Shen Wenchang listened to the words carefully, nodded and said: "After all, I am the master, what is right is good."

The two were talking, Xiaorou came in through the curtain.

"Uncle, madam is looking for you."

Shen Wenchang was stunned when he heard the words, and pointed to himself: "The second mother is looking for me? Is the father-in-law leaving?"

Xiaorou smiled coquettishly: "No."

"Look, he said he didn't come to sue!" Shen Wenchang had a bitter face.

"I don't think so. If you made a mistake, my father would have directly scolded you in the morning. Why would you go to the house to complain?" Lu Qingyi was very sure of her father's character, "Just go and see what it is for."

Shen Wenchang nodded when he heard the words, walked out a few steps and then turned back, holding the teacup and gulping down the tea.

Going to the front, I saw my father-in-law and Erniang talking happily in detail.

"Second mother, father-in-law." Shen Wenchang stepped forward to salute in a regular manner.

"Your father-in-law came to the door today and talked about your future, so he called you to listen." Mrs. Shen said to her stepson with a smile.

"I have an old friend who used to be a general of Zhonglang, but now I don't care about world affairs at home. I invite you to teach you martial arts this time. Would you like to learn?" Lu Wenzheng asked his son-in-law.

Shen Wenchang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Of course I am willing to learn martial arts."

Lu Wenzheng looked at Mrs. Shen upon hearing this.

"Since this is the case, I will immediately write a book to the master to explain this matter."

"Dear family, why don't I write this letter to Mr. Weng?" Lu Wenzheng said with a smile.

"This couldn't be better." Mrs. Shen told the nanny to fetch the four treasures of the study.

Lu Wenzheng wrote a letter, explaining two things in the letter, one is to invite an old friend to teach, if he can endure hardships and practice hard, he will be recommended as Xiaolian in the future, and it is not a problem to be a school captain of the eighth or ninth grade in the local government.The second thing is to train Mancang, he deliberately let Mancang be a small catcher in the Yamen, and he personally teaches his son-in-law.

After writing the letter, Lu Wenzheng dried the handwriting, folded it up and handed it to Mrs. Shen, saying: "I will send the letter to my in-laws."

"What should be done, why should my father-in-law thank you." Mrs. Shen took the letter and said: "It's almost noon now, let my father-in-law stay for a light meal."

Mrs. Shen said to her stepson, "The warehouse is full, go and collect it."

"No, no, my wife is polite. I have something to do in the yamen, so I can't stay longer, so I will leave first. My father-in-law will come back another day, and the two families will get together to talk about it." Lu Wenzheng stood up as he spoke.

"That's fine." Mrs. Shen stood up and took Lu Wenzheng out of the house with her stepson.

After Lu Wenzheng left, Mrs. Shen stood at the door of the house and said to Shen Wenchang: "Your father-in-law has spent all his time on your affairs, and you will have to work hard when the former Zhonglang comes."

"Well, I will study hard this time."

"Well, that's good, all the gifts for your grandparents and uncles are ready, you go and let Hui Ban change clothes, let's go to Peng's house and let Hui Ban recognize the door."

"Hey, let's go." Shen Wenchang ran into the house with his robe in hand.

There was a lot of fun here, but something happened there.

Cheng Yi and Liniang came to Cheng's house in Fu County, and planned to transport the extra property to the magistrate's yamen today, but when they went out, they found that a box of silver was empty, and half of the banknotes were gone.

The house panicked immediately, the old housekeeper checked the locked lock, it was almost pried open.

"Master, report the crime." The old housekeeper suggested.

"Okay, you guys stay here, don't destroy it, I'll go to the yamen." Cheng Yi said, turned and left in a hurry.

Lu Wenzheng met Cheng Yi in the lobby, learned that the money had been stolen, pondered for a moment, and at the same time sent people to Cheng's house, and at the same time sent people to look for suspicious people in the city.

At noon, the police found Cheng Guang, mother and son, in the ruined temple. They were eating chicken legs, and they were stunned when they saw the police.

Cheng Guang threw himself directly to the haystack, and the servants pulled away the struggling mother and son, and found money wrapped in clothes in the haystack.

"Go, follow us back to the Yamen."

In the lobby, after Lu Wenzheng started the trial, the mother and son were imprisoned for theft.

"The silver is back, Cheng Juren will take it back after counting it." Lu Wenzheng said to Cheng Yi.

"My lord, this money was originally intended to be sent to the yamen by the students."

Lu Wenzheng's expression darkened when he heard this, thinking that Cheng Yi wanted to bribe the officials as soon as he took back the property.

"Students and family members sorted out the family wealth yesterday, and collected everything left by my father before his death, and sorted out all the rest, and prepared to send it to the government office for his year's relief to the victims of disasters."

Lu Wenzheng knew that he had misunderstood Cheng Yi when he heard the words, so he smiled and said, "The government has judged that all the property under Cheng Xinxun's name will belong to you, so as to compensate your mother and son for the years of grievances and hardships, it shouldn't have to be like this."

"Returning to my lord, a gentleman always loves money and gets it in a proper way. It is not what students deserve, and students are not greedy for a penny."

"How can you say that you don't deserve it? Although Cheng Xinxun earned the money from his business, they colluded with the shopkeeper to kill your father, seize your property, enjoy your glory, and leave your mother and child alone. It is only natural that these should be used to pay for their crimes."

"My lord, the ancients said that if you are poor, you will benefit yourself alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. Now the students are following their father's career, and their hearts are satisfied. And these students are handed over to the Yamen. I hope that the Lord can use this money to help more people."

"Good!" Lu Wenzheng praised after hearing the words, "Ju Rengong has an open mind, and he will be named on the gold list in the future, and he will have a bright future."

Cheng Yi laughed but didn't say anything when he heard the words, why did everyone say that he would go to Beijing Chunwei?Now she has everything, she doesn't envy fame and busywork, but enjoys family happiness.

"Thank you for your praise, my lord. Then the students will return home to sort out their finances and send them to the yamen immediately."

"Okay." Lu Wenzheng nodded, looked at the master and said, "The master found the master book when he was young, and we counted it together and recorded it in the book."

"Yes, my lord."

"Students leave first." After Cheng Yi said that, he turned and exited the lobby. The sun outside the lobby was warm, which made people feel more comfortable.

"Fourth brother, let me just say that I saw it right." Tang Hongfei stepped forward holding a knife.

"Brother, what are you doing here?" Cheng Yi asked.

"Aren't I going to leave soon, grab a weapon at hand, why, come to the Yamen again, what happened?"

"It's not a big deal, I hired a thief, but I've been arrested right now, so don't mention it." Cheng Yi said and looked at Tang Hongfei, "How many days do you plan to leave, brother?"

"The original captain said he would leave the day after tomorrow, but yesterday afternoon he said he would leave the day after tomorrow. He said that he didn't recruit enough recruits, so he would stay one more day." Tang Hongfei sighed, rubbing the sword he had just struck.

"Then the day after tomorrow, I will be the host, and I will call the third brother and the others, and we will practice it for you."

"Okay, enough brothers." Under the sun, Tang Hongfei raised his knife and patted Cheng Yi's shoulder, hoping that he would be able to come back to drink with his brothers after another year.
