Carrying the wrong sedan chair to marry the wrong wife

In spring, the outskirts of Nantong are very beautiful. There is a piece of green above Mingshan Mountain, and the lake water is leisurely under Mingshan Mountain.The roads in the outskirts are lined with green grass, and occasionally a few chirping swallows fly on the branches.

It was drizzling last night, and the ground was still wet. Walking on the dirt road, the clean soles of my shoes were covered with mud.

Cheng Yi didn't care about it at all, and walked quickly, thinking about taking the students for an outing today, taking the green mountains and green waters as the theme, and being in nature as a gift.

As he approached the study, instead of the sound of the old books, he heard a burst of crying. Cheng Yi was startled, and ran over with his robe in hand.

The moment he stepped into the door of the study, Cheng Yi was stunned. Everything in front of him seemed to have been attacked by gangsters seeking revenge. The tables and chairs were all smashed, and there were big muddy footprints everywhere.Cheng Yi had some guesses in his heart, and then a look of anger appeared on his face.

"Master." Zi Che was comforting his crying classmate, when he saw Cheng Yi, he hurried forward, "Master, when we came this morning, the study was already like this, it must have been smashed by those people yesterday."

"Master, I can't eat the white sesame that my mother fried for me." Among the messy desks and chairs, sat a chubby student, crying while holding a badly trampled white sesame. It is a rare snack for children with poor conditions.

"Don't cry." Cheng Yi stepped forward and squatted down, wiping the student's tears, "Master, I have two coins here, take it and buy it back home so your mother can fry it for you."

The chubby student Tunzi wiped his tears when he heard the words, but he didn't take the money. He stood up and said, "Master taught me to read, and he only charged four Wen a year. This is something that has never been seen in ten miles and eight villages. I can't accept it any more." Master's money."

"Master knows you are sensible, so I will reward you." Cheng Yi took the student's hand and put the money in his palm.

"Then, then I'll go and buy it, and share it with my classmates when my mother cooks it." The fat student Dunzi raised his arm and wiped his tears away completely.

Hearing this, Cheng Yi raised his hand to touch the student's head, but when he saw the greasy hair, he paused and patted the student's shoulder instead.

"Master, let's report to the officials." Zi Che stepped forward and said.

"Yes, master, this kind of evil behavior is heinous, and it is most appropriate to use my law to punish it." You Hui echoed.

Cheng Yi looked down at the two, and asked for a long time, "Who are you suing?"

"That group of people yesterday!" You Hui said.

"What evidence is there?" Cheng Yi asked again, seeing that the expressions of the two students changed from surprise to grief.

"Remember, don't speak up about things you don't have evidence for, because if you don't have evidence, others can accuse you of slander and put you in a passive position. Be patient when you are not sure, and act quickly when you are sure. "Cheng Yijiao stood in front of the students holding hands and said slowly.

Zi Che and You Hui realized something when they heard the words, and bowed to Cheng Yi: "Master teaches, students accept."

Cheng Yi nodded and said: "Take the students outside, find a clean place with rocky shores, where we will give lectures."

"Hey." Ziche and Youhui said in unison.

"Everyone avoid the footprints on the ground." Cheng Yi found that there were white sesame seeds mixed in those muddy footprints, and he might leave them for the government to see, so he hurriedly asked everyone to avoid the footprints.

The students leaned against the wall and went out.

Cheng Yi then went out, locked the door of the study, and led a group of students to the big stone bank next to the study, looked at the green hills and clear water and said, "There are no tables and chairs right now, everyone sit on the stone bank."

The students sat down in a semicircle upon hearing the words, and Cheng Yi sat down opposite the students.

"Master, there is no evidence for this matter, should we let it go?" Zi Che asked.

Cheng Yi heard the words and said: "Forget it? Why do you want to give up? Go to the Yamen to report the case at noon, and let the government investigate who did it. Even if they can't do anything, you can gamble on them."

When Zi Che heard the words, he kept it in his heart, and he could add trouble to the other party when he couldn't tell the other party what the situation was.

"Dunzi, Dunzi." A woman yelled and ran over, followed by a group of women, who were stunned for a moment when they saw the people sitting on the ground on the stone bank, then went straight up and pulled the chubby student up, "Go home with mother, Your father said to spend money for you to study in another study."

Hearing this, Cheng Yi stood up: "This eldest sister..."

"Who are you calling elder sister? It is widely rumored that you married a singing girl, and not only that, but also disrespectful to the head of Huazhong Academy. How can you teach my son like this?" The lady said, dragging her son away.

"Mother, Master is learned, so treat me well, and I will learn from Master." Dunzi was pulled by his mother's arm, but he was pulled back by his feet.

Cheng Yi was pissed off by the singing prostitute. Although she went to the vocal workshop to marry Liniang in person, the information flow in the suburbs was slower than in the city. It's not surprising that many people didn't know about it before.He didn't even know about some places in the city, even if he heard about it, he didn't know that she was Cheng Yi.Now it is rumored everywhere that it must have been written by Meng Ke and Wu Yan.

"Go back with your mother." Cheng Yi turned away and did not keep her, the woman clearly decided to go.

After Cheng Yi finished speaking, the women behind ran over panting one after another. Several women came to the study as companions and clamored to take their son home.For a while there was a tug-of-war between the son and the mother.

"Okay, let's all go with your mother." Cheng Yi turned around with her hands behind her back, looking casual, but it was really hard for her to calm down in this one.

"Zi Che, don't worry, mother is not here to take you away, master is a great talent, since you have learned a lot since you started school with master, master's training is basically confiscated, you have to remember not to forget master after you finish your studies The grace of cultivation." A lady in common clothes said slowly while stroking Zi Che's head.

As soon as this remark came out, the surroundings were silent.

After a while, Dunzi took out two pennies and looked up at his mother, saying: "Mother, this is the money for buying fennel beans for me. The beam we give to the master is only four pennies. The master does not want to make money, and the lectures are interesting and practical. Mother will take me away and I will never meet such a wife again."

The woman's expression relaxed, but only for a moment, she took her son's hand and said: "You will not be able to hold your head up in the future if you follow a master with a bad reputation. Your father has contacted another study for you. Walk."

Nowadays, people pay special attention to the virtue and reputation of the master, Cheng Yi sighed slightly, and did not force it.

"Master, Master!!" The sound of horseshoes in the distance is getting closer, and the shouting is getting louder.

Cheng Yi recognized Cheng Shun's voice, and had a bad intuition in his heart. He hurriedly pushed aside the crowd and jumped off the stone bank. A few steps forward, he saw Cheng Shun riding a horse towards this side, with a white horse in his hand, Obviously it was for Cheng Yi.

"Master." Cheng Shun got off his horse, panting, "A group of scholars blocked the door, threatening to ask Master to apologize to them."

"Hmph." Not only was there a chill on Cheng Yi's face, but also anger gradually emerged, "If I don't go to them, they will have to make more progress. What kind of humility do they want me to say? What's the reason for the trouble?"

"One said that the young master disobeyed the teacher, and the other said that the young master beat his classmates. Young master, one of the front teeth fell out, and he said that the young master beat him yesterday." Cheng Shun looked at the corner of Cheng Yi's mouth, which was still swollen.

Cheng Yi smiled helplessly, they were afraid that her third brother was the son-in-law of the magistrate, so they didn't dare to make trouble, so they came to her, what a rascal.

"Go, go back." Cheng Yi decided to meet those people well. Since the third brother hit him, it was basically the same as what she hit, but she wouldn't apologize.

"Master." Zi Che and You Hui stepped forward, hesitating to speak.

Cheng Yi stopped her pace when she heard the sound, and turned around slowly, she was really reluctant to part with these two children.Cheng Yi sighed slightly and walked over.

"I'm afraid I won't have the time to teach you in the future. I will send someone to your home to deliver a book later. Let's say goodbye to you today. You have to study hard, and I hope he will meet again in front of the Dragon Stage in the next year."

Zi Che and You Hui looked at each other when they heard the words, knowing that the master was determined to make scientific research, they bowed to Cheng Yi to the end: "I have been taught by the master, and I will never forget it in my life."

Cheng Yi smiled and helped the two of them up, said goodbye, turned around and got on the horse, without even looking at the group of women behind him.

"Drive!" Cheng Yi got on the horse and headed towards the city with the horse's belly between his legs. The horse's hooves stepped on the dirt road, kicking up waves of mud behind him.

At this time, at the gate of Cheng's house, Wu Yan supported Meng Ke to stand in front of the group of scholars, surrounded by common people watching the excitement.

Meng Ke went back yesterday, took a bite of food and lost his front teeth, tossed and turned overnight, determined to find Cheng Yi bad luck today.

"Mother, let me go out." Liniang stood behind the closed door and said to Mrs. Cheng.

"No." Aunt Cheng shook her head and said, "They were talking about your background, and you will be humiliated by their words when you go out. Your Uncle Cheng Shun should pick up Ah Yi now, and he will be there in a while. Just wait patiently."

"Rang Rang, Rang Rang, the head of the mountain and the masters are here." Suddenly someone shouted from the crowd outside.

When everyone heard the words, they ran away to both sides, and Wu Yan and Meng Ke stepped forward to meet them.

"Master, Master."

The head of the mountain glanced at the two of them, then looked up at the closed door, and said displeasedly: "What are you doing here? You are not studying in the academy, and you are absent from class for no reason. Is it decent?"

"The head of the mountain, it's not the students messing around. Cheng Yi is quite disrespectful to the head of the mountain, and the students are very upset." Wu Yan said.

"This is my old grievance with him. It has nothing to do with you. Go back to class." Shan Zhang's voice was full of anger. Although he hated Cheng Yi for not respecting his teacher's orders, he knew Cheng Yi was a love song Ji, has nothing to do with Law Qiu, and making trouble with this is to humiliate herself.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way." A rough voice came from the alley on the left. Everyone heard the sound and looked around, only to see a group of people in short jackets rushing over with "guys" who were farming in their hands. They rushed straight to the door of Cheng's house and stood on the steps in a figure-of-sight shape, unanimously facing the outside world, while the two leaders stood in the middle of the figure-of-sight and looked down on them.

"Xu Jinwen!!!" Meng Ke covered his mouth with anger in his eyes, "Are you a student of Huazhong Academy? What are you going to do?"

Hearing this, Xu Jinwen glanced at the head of the mountain and the masters and said, "I'm a student of Huazhong Academy, but the academy didn't stipulate that I should follow you, Meng Ke, to seek personal revenge for you! Besides, the head of the mountain is highly respected, how could he be with me?" Brother cares about marriage? It must be that your words are not true and incited all the classmates, just to vent your personal anger."

"You!!!" Regardless of the embarrassment of having no front teeth, Meng Ke raised his hand and pointed at Xu Jinwen angrily.

Zhu Fugui took a step forward to stand in front of Xu Jinwen and said: "You are all scholars, more knowledgeable than me, you should study well and serve the court in the future, don't spend so much time on my fourth brother's family, my fourth brother is willing to marry Marry whoever you want, Aunt Cheng has no objection as a mother, so what are you fussing about?"

"That is, since my fourth sister-in-law married my fourth brother, she has been diligent and thrifty in managing the family and being kind. Especially after marrying my fourth brother, my fourth brother overturned the case and took back the ancestral house. What can such a prosperous wife and husband ask for?" Xu Jinwen poked his neck out. road.

The head of the mountain listened to it and shook his head helplessly. Even though these little ruffians are not intellectually advanced, there is some truth in what they say, but ruffians are what they say.

Meng Ke moved his mouth, wanting to swear, but since he was surrounded by classmates and wives, he couldn't lose face as a student, so he said patiently: "It doesn't matter to me if he wants to marry a prostitute, it has something to do with us." He was the one who disobeyed the head of the mountain and beat us."

The head of the mountain turned black when he heard the words, but this kid carried him out after doing something unreasonable, it is really hateful.

"Shut up with me and gather people to make trouble. The law does not allow it. You go back to me immediately." The head of the mountain knew that if he didn't leave, it would be difficult to end when the people from the yamen came. It's dirty.

"Baa, baa, baa..." The sound of horseshoes approaching from far to near. "The mountain is long and slow, Cheng Yi has something to say!!!"

Everyone heard the sound and looked, only to see Cheng Yi galloping towards this side on a horse.

Inside the door, Liniang heard the sound and quickly asked someone to open the door, and stepped out of the threshold with her skirt.

"Woo!!!" Coming to the door, Cheng Yi tightened the reins, the horse raised its front hooves, raised its head and let out a cry before the front hooves landed on the ground.

Cheng Yi glanced at everyone immediately before jumping off the horse.

"Fourth brother!!!" Seeing Cheng Yi, Xu Jinwen ran down the steps, feeling even agitated, wishing that Cheng Yi would argue with Meng Ke and find holes everywhere.

Cheng Yi patted Xu Jinwen on the shoulder, signaling him to be calm.He strode forward a few steps, bowed to the head of the mountain and the masters, and said, "The student has seen the head of the mountain and the masters."

"Get up." The head of the mountain said.

"Xie Shanchang." Cheng Yi got up, then cupped his hands and said to the students around him: "Everyone, be polite."

Seeing this, everyone glanced at the head of the mountain and his masters, and bowed their hands in return.

"Ah!!!" Suddenly, Liniang exclaimed.

Everyone heard the sound and looked back, only to see that Liniang was splashed with sewage all over her body by Wu Yan and Meng Ke's followers.

Cheng Yi took a step and stopped, looking at Meng Ke and Wu Yan with fire in his eyes.

"Hurry up and help the young mistress go back to take a bath." Aunt Cheng felt sorry for Liniang, and waved to the little maid to help Liniang go home.

Cheng Yi's clenched fists trembled, how could he bear seeing this enmity with his own eyes?

"What the hell are you doing?" Zhu Fugui yelled angrily while grabbing Wu Xi's follower.

"Who told you to do this?" Seeing this, Wu Yan hurried forward and scolded his follower, "I've completely embarrassed you, how could I do such a thing."

Meng Ke also went back to scold his followers.

Xu Jinwen was also angry, and just as he took a step, Cheng Yi stopped him: "Fourth brother, they did it on purpose."

Why didn't Cheng Yi know that the two of them were acting, so he thought about it and patted Xu Jinwen on the shoulder.Turning around and looking at the group of spectators, he said: "Everyone surrounded my door early in the morning, there must be some nobles, Cheng Yi will listen with all ears."

Everyone heard the words and looked at Meng Ke and Wu Yan. At this moment, in front of the head of the mountain and his masters, no one dared to stand out.

"Cheng Yi." Meng Ke stood up, "Look at my teeth!"

"I hit it?" Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows.

"Yesterday you were the first to do it." Meng Ke avoided talking about who knocked out his teeth, and grabbed Cheng Yi and did not let go.

Hearing this, Cheng Yi pretended to be stupid and said, "Who is the witness? Wu Yan? I can't prove it with my words if I have a deep friendship with the law."

"You!!!!" Meng Ke was dumbfounded, and then said angrily, "Don't you admit that a real man dares to do something?"

Hearing this, Cheng Yi glanced at Meng Ke's shoes and said, "A real man dares to act bravely, today you smashed my study, do you admit it?"

Meng Ke panicked for a moment, and then said: "Joke, how could I smash your study, do you have any witnesses?"

"Hehe." Cheng Yi snorted twice.

"There are no witnesses." Cheng Yi said.

Meng Ke's face brightened when he heard the words, and he said, "If you don't have witnesses, don't talk nonsense, and be careful that I will sue you for slander."

"But I have physical evidence." Cheng Yi smiled, but this smile made Meng Ke feel a little creepy.

The smile on Meng Ke's face was stiff: "Physical evidence? What physical evidence?"

"When the people from the yamen come, I will take it out naturally." Cheng Yi raised his hand and flicked the dust off his body,

"Cheng Yi, don't gossip about him. A man of Taoism can be killed but not humiliated. You must make amends to Brother Meng Ke today." Wu Yan stepped forward and said.

"What's wrong with me, Brother Meng Ke? Why do I need to make amends?" Cheng Yi continued to pretend to be stupid. She had to let Meng Ke and the others admit it, and the most important thing was that she would make a bet with Meng Ke and Wu Xi today, to humiliate his wife's hatred, and they would never share the sky.

Wu Cheng was so angry when he heard the words, what did Cheng Yi want to do! ! !Reluctantly repeated again: "You knocked out brother Meng Ke's front teeth! Shouldn't you make amends?"

"Me?" Cheng Yi pointed at himself in surprise, "Brother Meng Ke, please open your mouth again, I didn't see clearly just now, let me see if it really fell off this time!"

"Cheng Yi, you fucking..." Meng Ke swears, glanced at the head of the mountain and held back, "Cheng Yi, my voice has changed, can't you see the missing teeth when you open your mouth? ?”

"Tsk tsk tsk, it hurts the laws of nature." Cheng Yi shook his head, "For some reason, brother Meng Ke lost his front teeth, and I find it very pleasing to my eyes."

"Cheng Yi!!!" Meng Ke was anxious to beat Cheng Yi, but in front of such a person, he couldn't lose the bearing of a scholar.

"Rang Rang, Rang Rang, the Yamen handles the case." At this time, a group of police officers came with knives, "Who gathered a crowd to make trouble?"

"The two of them!" Xu Jinwen jumped behind Cheng Yi, pointing at Meng Ke and Wu Yan.

Seeing the arrester, Meng Ke cleared his throat and said, "I am the Juren of Chunwei last year. Because someone knocked out his front teeth, he came to ask for an explanation."

"Brother Hurry up, I am also the Juren of Chunwei last year. Because the study was smashed, I was about to argue with the perpetrator." Cheng Yi bowed.

The police in Fu County suddenly had a headache. Both sides were jurengongs, and this incident caused a lot of trouble.

"Cheng Yi, what does the smashing of your study have to do with us?" Wu Yan asked angrily.

Cheng Yi glanced at Wu Yan and ignored him, instead he said to the policeman, "Brother policeman, please look at their feet."

The policeman quickly lowered his head to look, but didn't see it: "What's wrong with their feet?"

"The bluestone road under their feet is covered with muddy loess and white sesame seeds." Cheng Yi said slowly.

"Ask Ju Rengong, what's so strange about this?"

Cheng Yi looked at Meng Ke and raised his eyebrows and said, "My study is in the suburbs, and this kind of muddy loess is only found in the suburbs, which proves that they went to the suburbs in the morning."

"What happened when we went out for a spring outing?" Meng Ke asked back.

The head of the mountain shook his head secretly when he heard the words.

"Oh? Brother Meng Ke is really an elegant person. He lost his front teeth yesterday, but this morning he still has leisure and leisure in the spring. It's really admirable." Cheng Yi smiled and cupped his hands.

Meng Ke's face darkened, and just about to argue, he heard Wu Yan who was beside him say, "We are going to the old doctor's in the suburbs to see the dentist. Brother Meng Ke is having fun while suffering, and it's just a spring outing."

Cheng Yi smiled and said: "The white sesame seeds they stepped on were left in the study by my student Dunzi. When I went today, Dunzi was holding the white sesame seeds on the ground and was crying very hard. Hurry up and go, big brother. I can see their footprints on the wooden boards of the study, and the same muddy loess with white sesame seeds, just to compare and contrast the footprints."

"Okay, you knocked out Meng Ke's front teeth, and Meng Ke smashed your study, let's make peace, Meng Ke, Wu Yan, come back to the academy with me." Shan Chang sighed, and more and more people watched, It really disgraces the academy.

Wu Yan tugged at Meng Ke's sleeve when he heard the words, the fact that they smashed the study was about to come to light, the heroes don't suffer the immediate loss, and the head of the mountain intended to protect them, so he just took this opportunity to get away.

Meng Ke couldn't bear it in his heart, but the situation was really unfavorable at this time, he hated Cheng Yi, he smiled so lightly that he didn't hurt him at all.

"Wait a minute, it's too early to go back to the academy! These two matters can be disclosed, but I still have one more matter." Cheng Yi put away her smile, she didn't expect the head of the mountain to protect Meng Ke and the others so much, and walked between Wu Yan and Meng Ke, Whispered: "Humiliate my wife in front of the door, this hatred will last forever."

Meng Ke and Wu Yan looked at Cheng Yi, and they could strongly feel Cheng Yi's anger at this moment.

After Cheng Yi finished speaking, he took a step back: "Jinwen, enter the mansion and get me a pen."

"Hey." Xu Jinwen strode up the steps when he heard the words, and was about to knock on the door when the door of Cheng's house opened. When he was young, he handed out his pen and ink.Xu Jinwen walked to Cheng Yi's side with ink in his hand and a pen in his hand.

"Since ancient times, literati have been very elegant. Today Cheng is willing to follow the example of the ancients and make a bet with Brother Meng Ke and Brother Wu Yan. I don't know if the two brothers will dare to fight?" Cheng Yi looked at the two and said with a smile.

"What are you talking about!" Wu Yan asked.

"In front of the head of the mountain and all the masters, let's make a contract to see who will win the championship in the next spring." Cheng Yi said and walked two steps with his hands behind his back: "Which one of you two can win the championship, I Cheng Yi Willing to chop off two fingers."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar, and Xu Jinwen and Zhu Fugui were also stunned.

Aunt Cheng behind Cheng's door staggered two steps.

"And if I take the top spot, how about chopping off two fingers for the two of you?" Cheng Yi asked with a smile.

"Then what if the three of us don't win the championship?" Wu Yan asked.

"Whoever ranks first wins." Cheng Yi said.

"Cheng Yi, everyone reads the books of sages and sages, so what's the point of being so bloody?" Shan Chang was angry.

Cheng Yi turned a deaf ear, looked at the two people in front of him and asked: "Why, brother Meng Ke and brother Wu Yan are afraid? Two of you two wins and one wins me, Cheng Yi, so why are you afraid? Hahahahahaha, what are you cowards? Little?"

Wu Yan clenched his fists and glanced at Meng Ke. They used to be called the Four Talents together, and sometimes Cheng Yi was inferior to them in Fu.Besides, the two of them have a better chance of winning together. Now that I think about it, there is nothing to be afraid of. Things in the examination room are ever-changing, and the examination questions are also said to be smooth or not.

Meng Ke also figured it out in a short time, and decided that he had nothing to fear.

"Why are we two afraid of it?" Wu Yan said.

"Meng Ke, Wu Yan, you are not allowed to fight." Shan Zhang was anxious, he knew Cheng Yi's level, Cheng Yi got serious, Zhang Ziliao could not win yet.

"Shan Zhang, brother Cheng Yi has spoken out, we should not fight to spread the word, isn't it saying that we are as cowardly as mice?" Meng Ke said.

"Don't worry, Master Shan, we will definitely let those who don't respect teachers know that there is still righteousness in this world." Wu Yan echoed.

Cheng Yi laughed when he heard the words, then his eyes froze for a moment, and he tore open the robe forcefully: "Jinwen."

"Ah? Ang!" Xu Jinwen walked up to Cheng Yi and bent down. Cheng spread the torn robe on Xu Jinwen's back, and wrote two contracts with a brush, and then signed them.

After writing, Cheng Yi handed the pen to Meng Ke.

Meng Ke snorted softly, took the pen and signed it, and then Wu Yan signed it.

Cheng Yi tore apart the two contracts, threw one to Meng Ke, and folded the other into his arms.

"I hope that before Chunwei sees the outcome, the two brothers can concentrate on studying the book and don't disturb each other." Cheng Yi cupped his hands.

Meng Ke and Wu Yan turned their heads away and cupped their hands as a gesture.

"Since there is nothing else, let's go." The policeman shouted.

The crowd left the door of Cheng's house under the dispersal of the police.

The head of the mountain walked a few steps closer and whispered, "Why do you have to have two fingers from the two of them?" In fact, he could order them not to make a contract in the name of the head of the mountain, but he couldn't save the two self-righteous people.

Cheng Yi looked at the head of the mountain with mixed feelings. When the head of the mountain was protecting Wu Yan and Meng Ke, she was chilled, but in the end the head of the mountain was silent and did not stop her again, which surprised her.

"Just now, I insulted my beloved wife with sewage in front of the door."

The head of the mountain was stunned for a long time when he heard the words, and then sighed: "There are really infatuated species in the world."

After Cheng Yi finished speaking, he didn't even look at Shan Chang, and ran home with red eyes.
