Chapter 5 The Master
Ye Cuizhi was like a bolt from the blue, her body trembled, and she looked at her husband who had been with her for several years in disbelief, "You...you want to divorce me?"
She married into the Liu family, serving her parents-in-law and doing housework every day, and dare not make any mistakes. Who among the neighbors and eight miles does not praise her diligence and ability? Although her son has not yet been born, her daughter is only four years old and looks cute. How could she reach the point where she will definitely have no descendants?
It’s just a supplement to my younger brother, but she earns the change she earns from her free time to do needlework every day. Where can I use the Liu family’s article? The lights are on the third day and the five-day meal. She worked hard for several years, but she got a divorce book?
Seeing Ye Cuizhi's emotions, Liu Dun took a step back guiltily. When he thought of her benefits, he felt a little regretful. However, his parents' orders were hard to violate, so he had to bite the bullet at this time.
Ye Xingyuan watched coldly, suddenly stepped forward and approached Liu Dun, gritted his teeth and asked, "I don't come early or late, I'm just here today. Could it be that it's because of me?"
Liu Dun wanted to speak but stopped, but did not answer, just looked at Ye Cuizhi.
The most important reason why the Liu family wants to divorce their wife is of course not because of the lack of a son. Originally, the Liu family married Ye Cuizhi, a beautiful and hardworking woman, and should have been satisfied. What's more, Ye Xingyuan is a well-known social student in the countryside.
However, in recent years, the Liu family has been doing business in the village and made some money by chance. The rich wife traded in the rich, and the Liu family's parents-in-law had different thoughts, and they couldn't help but regret marrying a useless poor woman back then and had the idea of marrying another woman.
However, he had been holding Ye Xingyuan to study and improve, which could bring hope to the Liu family. But today, when the Liu family heard that Ye Xingyuan was abandoned and had no future at all, it might even be a drag, so they took advantage of the situation and hurriedly forced them to divorce their wife. One day earlier, one day less drag would be reduced.
Speaking of which, the Liu family also bullied the Ye family's siblings and parents and died, and they did not have the support of their elders, so they dared to act so recklessly.
Ye Xingyuan saw that his sister was sad and angry. He reached out and picked up the divorce letter. When he opened it, he saw that there were only a few words of mercy. His writing was not clear and his handwriting was ugly. Even if he wanted to pick up his sister's thorns, he couldn't pick anything.
He held Ye Cuizhi, who was shaking, and raised his divorce letter, "Brother-in-law, now I will call you brother-in-law again, let me ask you, your father and mother say, what do you think?"
Ye Xingyuan knew that Liu Dun was cowardly and was usually convinced by his sister. There must be a reason why he suddenly became bolder today. What he thought about himself must ask clearly.
Liu Dun was impatient, "What do you and children know about our adult affairs? If it weren't for your burden, why would my parents be like this?"
He looked back and thought, his wife was actually fine, but she was too concerned about her brother-in-law, which made him unhappy several times. At this time, Ye Xingyuan asked, and he unconsciously told the truth.
"Liu Dun!" Ye Xingyuan couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Can you be like a man? If you don't have your own ideas if you keep your parents in three words, do you have no idea? What are your own plans?"
Liu Dun was stunned for a moment. On weekdays, his family was either his parents made the decision or his wife made the decision. Now he was asking him about his own plans, but he really couldn't say it for a while. He yelled for a long time, only squeezed out three words, "I don't know."
"I don't know?" Ye Cuizhi felt so sad that she looked pale. She endured it for a long time. She knew what her parents-in-law treated her and no longer cared. She didn't expect that the person next to her would finally say these three words.
Four years of love between husband and wife, these three light words can be written off in one stroke? Ye Cuizhi was so angry that she stomped her feet and snatched her divorce letter from Ye Xingyuan's hand, tearing it to pieces, and shook Liu Dun's face. "Liu Dun, since you don't think of the kindness of husband and wife, then we should not live there, but if your Liu family wants to divorce me, that's a dream! I'll be with you!"
She is strong-willed and can pull her younger brother independently when she is a teenager, which is enough to be a family. She is soft on the outside and hard on the inside. How can people bully her at will?
Liu Dun was panicked and didn't know how to react. When he thought, the woman would just take the divorce letter silently and cry home. What else could she do? Heli, what is that?
In a daze, he suddenly saw Ye Cuizhi turn around and go back to the house, take a broom, and waving it to his head and smash it to his head. Liu Dun ran away in panic and ran faster than a rabbit.
Ye Xingyuan was stunned. He didn't expect that his sister, who had always been gentle to him, would have such a side. Seeing Liu Dun's back disappearing on the mountain road, Ye Cuizhi put down the broom and suddenly burst into tears. The crying was full of grievances.
Ye Xingyuan felt extremely guilty. He didn't expect that he had accomplished nothing and suffered so much kindness in vain, but in the end he even dragged down his sister's marriage. When he thought about it, he felt ashamed.
Don’t bully the young man as poor. Ye Xingyuan secretly gritted his teeth. As long as he passes the present moment, he will definitely have a future. It will not be too late to deal with the affairs of his sister and the Liu family!
It is difficult for a honest official to make a family matter. The marriage matter depends on the attitude of his sister. If his sister is willing to live with the Liu family, he has to find a way to prevent his sister from being angry anymore. If his sister gives up on the Liu family, he will take revenge on the Liu family and vent his anger!
He had these plans in his mind, but he was not in a hurry to say it out loud at this time. Ye Xingyuan pressed his thoughts and forced a smile to comfort his sister.
He was a human being in two lives. Although his emotional experience was not rich, he was still knowledgeable and had a few jokes about coaxing girls. Ye Cuizhi burst into tears and temporarily threw away the matter of her husband's family.
Ye Cuizhi is also a sensible person. She can take it and let it go. Whether she wants to divorce or live a new life, she must have a constitution. It is useless to think about it now. It is better to think about my current urgent matters.
What's more, there is a problem between me and my in-laws. If I don't have the support of my mother's family, I will always be alone and lonely. Now I hope it all depends on my younger brother. Only when my younger brother is developed can I be happy.
Therefore, Ye Cuizhi frowned and said, "I heard what I said to your brother-in-law... and Liu Dun? Do you still remember Yu Xiucai? I suddenly remembered that he and my sister are also acquainted. If I were willing to take you once, Mr. Qian would definitely not be able to eat or live with me."
Ye Cuizhi thought about it and thought that Ye Xingyuan still had to come forward with this matter, but his younger brother was a little afraid of life and didn't know whether he would rather go or not.
After hearing what my sister said, Ye Xingyuan also remembered it. Yu Zheng and Xiucai often came to his home back then. He was a little scholarly and honest. In addition, he often thought he had some meaning to his sister. However, later he became Tong Sheng and Xiucai one after another, and he no longer came to the Ye family. He had never even seen anyone in the past two years.
"I remember that Yu Xiucai told me two days of articles. It would be great if he was willing to help, my sister and I would visit him." Ye Xingyuan nodded. Yu Xiucai's knowledge is still much higher than that of the tutor Qian. The scholar's fame was obtained by real tests. He also told himself the principle of the secret of heaven, which benefited him a lot.
After lunch, the brother and brother cleaned up the dishes, locked the door, went out in the afternoon and walked straight along the mountain road. After walking about three miles, he turned over a large depression and arrived at Donghui Village.
Yu Xiucai's house is the most grand in Donghui Village. It has three large tiled houses with white walls outside and two peach trees planted in the yard. You can see it at a distance.
Ye Xingyuan and Ye Cuizhi walked to the door of the main hall and saw Xiucai Yu sitting on the Grand Master's chair talking to someone. The two groups of people in the lower head respectfully lowered their heads and listened to the scholar's instructions.
Yu Xiucai's appearance has not changed much and his body is thin. In the past two years, he has deliberately prepared a moustache, which looks a bit more majestic. When he saw the brother and brother coming, he nodded and showed up.
Ye Xingyuan looked at the arrangement in the hall. There was a central hall hanging behind the scholar. The handwriting was just plain, but the signature was "handwritten by Chen Jian, a fellow countryman from the hometown", which was amazing. Chen Jian is a famous talent in the county. He lives in Chenjia Village, thirty miles west. He passed the juren last year. This year, he has gone to the capital to study and prepare for the imperial examination. He could not say that he was a famous friend of the emperor. He did not expect that he would be a family friend of Yu Xiucai.
There are a pair of large celadon vases on both sides. The patterns on the vases are several familiar stories of encouraging learning, which should be gifts given to Yu Xiucai by students. In addition, the furnishings in the Xiucai's home are very simple, quite like the style of ancient scholars.
If Tongsheng is a candidate who is not a beginner, then scholars can be called the entry-level level in the royal dynasty. Once you become a scholar, you can inherit the royal dynasty and teach the secrets of heaven. You can educate people in the countryside on weekdays, encourage people to be kind, and uphold justice and mediate disputes. This is also the reason why the Ye brothers and sisters came to find Yu Xiucai, not entirely because they were old acquaintances.
At this time, the scholar was mediating the dispute between the two families for a homestead. The two families were originally neighbors, but they had a dispute because they wanted to build a new house. They had their own opinions on the location of the dividing stone tablet. The home said that they would push three feet west according to the original contract, but the west family refused to accept it. The two families fought red and refused to give in.
After hearing their own words, Yu Xiucai pondered for a moment, and sighed softly, "The bustling bustle is all for profit. But the three-foot land is to compete for this. Why should it hurt the harmony of the neighbors?"
He asked someone to lift the boundary stone tablet and lift the pen to write the words on it. He saw that the end of his pen was filled with light, like an axe. The words he wrote were three parts into the stone and were deeply engraved on it. "There are only troubles for the wall, so why not let him three feet? The city of Wanli is still here now, and the gods and emperors were not seen in the past!"
Yu Xiucai wrote while reciting, his voice was like a yellow bell, and it fell into everyone's ears. The two families seemed to be shocking. After a moment of confusion, they all showed shame on their faces, took a few steps back, and looked up at each other.
An old man from the boss beat his chest and stamped his feet, "Oh, Brother Li, why do you think I am obsessed with the ghosts? I don't miss the friendship between our two families for many years, and I have to fight for this three-foot place with you?"
The old man from Xijia was even more crying and held the other party's hand, "Old brother, I'm confused. I'll tell my children and grandchildren that my family will withdraw from three feet!"
"No, no, no, we should retreat three feet!" The people from the boss were anxious, hugged the dividing stone tablet, shouting and letting someone bury it. It was really three feet higher than before.
Seeing that they were humble to each other, Yu Xiucai nodded with satisfaction, "Since that's the case, you two will retreat with a foot and a half and leave a path. Wouldn't that be nice? When the descendants ask in the future, they will know your humble and retreat today." As soon as this statement was made, both sides agreed and thanked the scholar with gratitude. They went out hand in hand, and they could still hear their laughter and conversation in the distance.
When Ye Xingyuan, an outside traveler, saw this scene, he couldn't help but be incredible. This time, the dispute between the two sides was suddenly humbled after Yu Xiucai said a few words of "the sound of the magic sound poured on his ears", and the dispute was naturally resolved.
This is a magical power, it is simply the most powerful brainwashing. If you sell insurance or engage in pyramid schemes... Also, is this brainwashing permanent or time-efficient? Ye Xingyuan couldn't help but have some disrespectful thoughts in his mind.
Having said that, Ye Xingyuan had known that there were three thousand great ways in this world. Scholars used literature to enter the Tao and fame as the rank, and the royal destiny granted various supernatural powers. However, this was the first time that he had seen a scholar educate the customs with a clear heart and holy voice.
Yes, Tong Sheng was granted the body of greatness, and the supernatural power of the scholar is the sacred sound of the clear heart! Only scholars are so magical. What about Juren and Jinshi? This is the best person who surpasses ordinary people. Ye Xingyuan felt a fever in his heart and was more eager for fame and fortune.
If you can make progress in the future and achieve fame and fortune, you will naturally gain magic and become an existence that is separated from ordinary people. At least this is the path of cultivation that looks most suitable for you. The so-called immortals are probably just like this?
