Chapter 94 Falling Flowers and Flowing Water

After Xu Hao brought people to the door on time the next day, he found that the two stone lions had been washed clean and restored to their original appearance. The stone steps were also cleaned up spotlessly, and the ground was purged with clean water.

Four or five servants stood in front of the door of Zhu, all of whom were happy. Before Xu Hao got off the horse, they all came out and knelt on the ground and pretended to kowtow.

Xu Hao's face immediately became the same as today's weather. The sky was clear and blue. He smiled and stretched out his hand, "Don't give a big gift, I didn't prepare a reward when I came."

Zhang Jiu led his family together, kowtowed to Xu Hao sincerely, stood up and said seriously: "If you don't kowtow, you can't express your gratitude to your benefactor. If you hadn't helped you repeatedly, the Zhang family would have ended."

Xu Hao got off the horse and said, "I have said a long time ago that I have the same relationship with your old master. I am saying that the two families have made a marriage again, so there is no need to be so polite between relatives."

Zhang Jiu smiled and asked Xu Hao and his group to enter the mansion, and said as he walked: "You are a relative like you, and the others are all scumbags who are not familiar with others. From now on, I will not let anyone go to the house."

Xu Hao stopped and smiled and said, "Don't be that absolute. After the accident happened in your family, some relatives did make great efforts. These days they were carried by others and could not explain, otherwise they would offend the entire relatives. Besides, relatives are always relatives. I, an outsider, can beat people and make trouble without hesitation, but you can't do it.

You have to remember that without relatives, will your young lady and the young master be helpless all their lives? It is like a lonely flower in the wind, which is not good. In the future, if there are relatives with no bad records, please come to the house and let them go in. Even if you run to fight the famine because of the poor family, you have to treat each other well and don’t insist on closing the door privately. I will come here at any time in the future. If you hear any rumors, you will know my temper."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Jiu and other servants bowed their heads and nodded repeatedly.

How could Xu Hao not know what the servants are doing? If you don’t have any managers, you will always be able to tell your life, and you will definitely go in and out of your left ear the right ear the next moment.

In fact, he didn't want to scold the Zhang family's servants as if they were in a master's manner. Although they were respectful in their faces, they would not be convinced. To put it bluntly, he was worried that the slaves would bully the master in the future, so he would admit that he was disgusted by others. Just like yesterday, he didn't want to hit people and pretend to be evil young men, he was forced to do anything.

Because no matter how angry Zhang Yueyun was at that time, after his anger disappeared, he would complain that he was too cruel and did not miss the two brothers and did not leave any affection for his relatives, which made his relationship with all relatives very tense in the future.

Relatives are relatives. No matter how many times they fight or even turn against each other, they are still relatives. Just like outsiders should not get involved in the grudges between husband and wife, just because you are outsiders.

Xu Hao didn't plan to be a benefactor. At most, it would be enough to take care of him for ten years. If Zhang Yueyun and his brother were grateful, the two families would continue to interact in the future. Otherwise, they would never interact with each other.

As a man and a woman, Xu Hao was not going to go into the inner house to see Zhang Yueyun. He even stood outside the door of the mansion to avoid suspicion and asked Zhang Jiu to lead Zhang Yu out to meet him.

His actions made the Zhang family members and the neighbors around him very moved. They all secretly raised their thumbs up, thinking that this was a kind and righteous gentleman who would not deceive the dark room.

I don’t know that Xu Hao is in the future. In short, Xu Hao is acting from the other person’s perspective. He likes the honest and sensible Xiao Zhang Yu very much, and hugs him and asks about his studies. When he learned that Zhang Yu has not been to school, Xu Hao had a headache.

Because of Zhang Yu's identity as a criminal minister, he could not be arranged to be a companion to the royal family. Otherwise, the main hall would be the best institution to learn literature and martial arts. Unfortunately, he was too close to the crown prince Zhu Yunwen.

Xu Hao thought for a while and said, "Choose a prestigious school nearby, just dozens of taels of silver a year. I will order someone to send you five hundred taels of silver. Your family should have a guard who is skilled in martial arts. Zhang Yu, you must study hard and practice martial arts. In the future, you can inherit the family title and make achievements for me in the Ming Dynasty. You must not disappoint your sister."

"I understand." Zhang Yu hugged Xu Hao's neck with both hands, resting his little face on his shoulders, and whispered: "My sister wants to thank you in person, and she also said she can't ask for your money anymore. I've been bothering you and I feel sorry for you."

Xu Hao patted Zhang Yu's back gently and said with a smile: "It's not necessary to meet. It sounds bad when it is spread. I used to borrow your brother's money and I had to eat and drink for free. I don't know how many banquets you have. Your brother has never said anything outside. We are brothers, what's the money! When you go back, tell your sister, don't keep things outside in your heart. If you don't guarantee your brother Xu Hao, you will be in trouble. When you come to your house, you will have to eat and drink."

Zhang Yu raised his head and said seriously: "A good person may not be rewarded! I remember that when my brother gets trouble, he will take out as much money as his family has. If he doesn't keep his word, he will be a puppy."

Good people may not necessarily be rewarded. Xu Hao looked at Zhang Yu deeply and thought to himself that the child's mind was gradually changing. He didn't know whether it was good or bad, and he would be able to make a name for himself in the future.

In this way, Xu Hao bid farewell to Zhang Yu and his family who were reluctant to leave, and took his guards back on the same road, leaving the city to continue studying.

The gangsters invited around had already dispersed, and the sixth uncle and other relatives returned home with the benefits they received. Both sides did not do anything too well, which somewhat avoided the embarrassment of the Zhang family when they met in the future. As for the money lost by the Zhang family, it would be better if the wealth of the Zhang family did not go to the outsiders' land, they would just spend money to buy a quiet place.

The inner house of Zhang family.

Zhang Yueyun, who was waiting to personally thank her husband, seemed very disappointed when she learned that her husband had left. She sent the maid and younger brother away. At this moment, the lost man sat on the chair and silently pondered his thoughts.

Since returning home, he has never seen his benefactor again, even if he is good, and told him in person how grateful he is, Zhang Yueyun sighed quietly.

The scene of that night is still vivid in my mind: the handsome young man fell from the sky and rescued the mistress in the dark and desperate situation. The gentle smile on his warm palms, the young man was like a white light at that time! He was considerate and helped himself out with his own hands, and comforted him gently, and he would never forget that scene.

It’s a pity that I never saw anyone again. Even if such a big thing happened at home, he still appeared, but he didn’t come in to comfort him. The more Zhang Yueyun thought about it, he became more angry. He knew that he repeatedly mentioned his deceased brother and never talked about himself. Is it shameful? Am I ugly? I, a daughter of the Marquis’s Mansion, isn’t qualified to invite you to meet?

Since you don’t want to see me, then I will no longer care about you. Just treat it as a spring dream, and when you wake up, you will be left with the wind without any trace.

Zhang Yueyun, who was secretly sulking, had tears on her face. She subconsciously picked up the pipa, thought for a moment, and sang a song Niannujiao that she had learned in Hualou that day. This was circulated in the Kung Fusifang in recent years. It is said that it was written by a top scholar who cherished flowers and sympathized with the fragrance of flowers for the sake of beauty. Now it has become the most popular song on the Qinhuai River.

"The waning moon is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts, why don't you think of nostalgia! The pipa of the fog locks in the jade tower, the goddess often says that she is lonely. She is proud of the sky, abandons makeup, and is elegant and independent. Under the dust, she hopes to get a close friend of her heart.

The pipa is like a low whisper, and the goddess is gone, but she can only see the charming makeup. The fragrance of the fan is accompanied by the wine, and the elegant meaning is gone. The dance is low and the joyful face is forced to make tears, and sheds tears. She trembles with jade pens, and I don’t know how to write my heart.”

After singing the song, Zhang Yueyun stared out the window in a daze, crying.

I was excited and moved by my own experience. The most sad thing was that the fallen flowers were intentionally flowing water was ruthless. I was completely immersed in the artistic conception of the lyrics, and accidentally sang Nian Nujiao into a utmost sound. It can be said that it was so sad and painful, and it was wandering around for three days, touching my soul!

If the author knew that there was a beautiful woman in the capital who had never met before and fully sang his voice, he would be very pleased to be attracted to her as a confidant. This would be enough to be "smiling in the sky" after the age of 100!

Let’s talk about Xu Hao, who came to Mu’s family, was about to get a test tomorrow. On the way, he bought some gifts to his classmates one by one. I wish everyone a smooth exam and a fish leaps to the dragon gate! He himself also received a lot of gifts from all sides, most of which were elegant things such as pens, ink, paper and fans.

Unexpectedly, even Mu Ningxue asked Zhiyan to come and gave her a handmade purse, which was made of goose yellow satin. It was exquisite and beautiful, and the fragrance was scented in her hand.

Xu Hao picked it up and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, guessing that the inside should be filled with high-quality incense. When he opened it, he saw that the stitches at the stitching of the material were densely filled, and he didn't know how many needles had been put. Not only was there a row of ears hand-woven with red and black silk threads, but there were also a chain of woven threads made of more than a dozen gold threads through black pearls. The bright colors matched very well with the goose yellow purse. I really don't know how much effort and effort it took, but there was also a delicate spherical ancient jade in the middle.

Xu Hao was very moved. This shows that the girl was very careful. He hangs in the pile of powder and knows such small objects too well. Whether to use it or not can be said to be a big difference, and the things sewn will definitely not be the same.

He put it carefully on his neck, afraid that the sweat stains would stain it, so he took it out and placed it outside his clothes. After thinking about it, he was afraid that it would be lost accidentally, so he put it on his flesh. He felt that it was still inappropriate and took it off and placed it on his palm to watch it carefully. He had fun playing over and over again.

As for the exam, Xu Hao didn't care at all. It would be a pleasure to pass it, but it would be nothing if he didn't pass it.

Because as a military position, you have to follow the path of military position. Whether you lead troops or fight or not is unknown. Anyway, you can accumulate qualifications peacefully. After all, you are an eighth-rank official under the Yan Wang Mansion, and it will take ten years to go, and it is safe to have a hereditary thousand households.

The status of military officers in the early Ming Dynasty was not worse than that of civil servants, and they were even slightly higher. At this moment, there was no dispute between civil and military officials and any party disputes. It was the best period of officialdom. Xu Hao did not plan to deal with those literati who wanted to be sensible for the time being, so it was too tiring.

It is nonsense to be a time traveler who is a time-traveler, if you are accidentally considered a deviant, it will be troublesome. Any change may be regarded as a provocation of Confucian etiquette and law. Even if there is a way to convince the emperor, he is too lazy to deal with it.

Military officers are relatively free. They do whatever they want to do, and it is enough to curry favor with their bosses. Of course, it is best to have a free time.

Besides, Xu Hao is still underage and cannot be an official to show his ambitions. It seems that he is too proud of him.
