Chapter 588: Counting the general ledger after the autumn?

Lu Sanlang's coronation ceremony was attended by only a few guests and many relatives and friends. Originally, it was not a big event in the capital city that has been experiencing a lot of turmoil recently. However, the emperor's incognito appearance in person was like an earth-shattering shock. Although Lu Wan tried his best to control it, during the coronation ceremony

It didn't spread, but after the crowning ceremony, the news spread like wildfire, causing an uproar in both the government and the public.

However, several talented people who were summoned to the capital and were proficient in astronomy came to provoke them. However, they were defeated first when they faced off against Lu Sanlang, and then they were even more speechless when faced with Zhang Shou's problem-solving in public. In the end, Zhang Shou was still the one to win.

Teachers and students like Lu Sanlang ignored their past grudges, repaid grudges with kindness, and entertained them hospitably. This incident became a hot topic in the streets after Zhang Chen, Zhu Er and others vigorously publicized it after they left the Lu Mansion.

While others were talking about this crowning ceremony, Lu Sanlang was not idle either. Today, he has officially joined the crowning ceremony and became an adult. The first thing he did after seeing off the guests was to greet his own

Several cronies hurried back to the lobby where the banquet had just been held, and directly ordered them to move away the ten blackboards full of Zhang Shou's writing.

When Lu Wan saw off his in-laws, Liu Shilang of the Ministry of Industry, and came back a little late, he saw the empty hall. He called someone to ask and found out that Lu Sanlang had personally brought the ten blackboards to Jiuzhang Hall.

Suddenly he was so angry that he said, "No one came to report such a big thing to me. Is it possible that there are no rules in this family?"

Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang, who were following their father to see off the guests, immediately exchanged glances. Lu Erlang smiled apologetically and said, "Dad, don't be angry. Third brother has always respected his teachers. He took the calligraphy left by Dr. Zhang seriously."

It’s not surprising that he moved his land back to Jiuzhang Hall to support him..."

Before Lu Erlang finished speaking, he saw Lu Wan turning her head and staring at him coldly, and immediately stopped talking. But when Lu Dalang saw that his younger brother had hit a soft spot in front of his father, he couldn't help but secretly laugh at how hard he spared no effort to suppress his younger brother.

, he even said words such as "respecting teachers and respecting morality" which were called praise but were actually ironic.

He coughed lightly, intending to say a few "fair words" to show his generosity and caring as the eldest brother, but as soon as he finished coughing, he received a cold look from Lu Wan.

"What are you coughing for? You didn't speak during the ceremony before, so why are you dumb now? You're just pretending to be in front of me. I don't think I've taught you this before!"

Seeing that his two sons fell silent immediately, Lu Wan scolded him angrily: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. It's okay that you looked down on your younger brother in the past, but today's crowning ceremony,

The emperor is here, and you have given enough face to that boy, but you still play tricks that are not worthy of publicity... stupid!"

The two brothers turned green and white after being scolded by Lu Wan. Lu Erlang was even more impatient and could not hold his breath. He whispered for a moment: "What's wrong with us? The eldest brother has always been his praiser throughout the whole process. I

We are all welcoming him and sending him off. For his crowning ceremony, haven’t we two brothers worked hard enough?"

Lu Wanran smiled and said: "Welcome and send, but in the end, a few provocative people were placed in this place of ceremony?"

Lu Erlang couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart, and then he immediately forced a smile and said: "Dad, at that time, my eldest brother and I were busy entertaining other guests and were not outside. I heard that the entourage brought by Dr. Zhang... was called Ah Liu, listen.

The one who said he was very powerful and capable of fighting was the one who let people in on his own initiative, and it really had nothing to do with me and my eldest brother."

Seeing that his younger brother was trying to clear himself up, Lu Dalang hurriedly helped: "That's right, that Ah Liu treated the Lu family as if it were his own home. At that time, dad and we were entertaining guests, and the servants in the family couldn't break in.

He came to ask for instructions, so naturally I had to listen to him..."

"Oh, it's all his own decision. Didn't you tell the servants at home earlier that if there are guests, just let them in and don't worry about anything else?" Lu Wan impatiently interrupted the two brothers' excuses and saw that they had listened to him.

His expression was very unnatural, and he couldn't help but sneered.

"Don't blame others for everything! The Ah Liu next to Zhang Shou did let people in intentionally. When he left, he made it clear to me that it was Zhu Ying who ordered him. Zhang Shou didn't pay attention for a moment and just casually let people in.

Lu Zhu's cousin was raised on the spot, and Zhu Ying was probably afraid that others would pick on etiquette, so since the emperor originally left this matter to Lu Zhu, she wanted to stir up the situation."

"But what Zhu Ying thinks is her business. What Ah Liu does is also his business. However, when Ah Liu let people in, the servants of the Lu family turned a blind eye like a deaf and blind person and didn't even try to stop him.

No one else, even a fool would find it strange, not to mention this kid is very smart!"

Seeing that her eldest son and second son's expressions finally changed drastically this time, Lu Wan just scolded him angrily: "Don't think that because he doesn't like to talk, you can blame others casually. That kid usually likes to keep things under wraps.

He is pretending to be ignorant, so the emperor always trusts him! There are two people in Zhang Shou's family who are receiving salary from the imperial court, one is Zhang Shou himself, a doctor of the Imperial Academy..."

"The other one is Ah Liu who gets the salary as a coach in the Ruiqi Camp! Why don't you just try to get some of the money from the Ruiqi Camp? Huh, this time you have not only lost face to the Zhang family, but also to the emperor.

went!"

Hearing that the emperor might also know about their selfishness, the Lu brothers finally became flustered. After all, Lu Dalang was a few years older and had been pretending to be calm for many years. He could still tolerate it at this time, but Lu Erlang was still young.

Sheng couldn't help it.

"Why is this so embarrassing? Fatty Lu Zhu always shows off how talented he is and how hard he works. Now that someone has come to the door this time, even if he is let in, it will give him a chance to show off in public. This

Is it still my fault?" Just as Lu Erlang said this, he saw Lu Wan's dagger-like eyes piercing him.

At that moment, he seemed to have an illusion that if he said one more word, his father's big ear would be slapped down.

"He is called Fatty in front of me. This shows how you call him outside! Why, he was inconspicuous in the past, but now he has met a noble person and has become capable. He was better than him in everything before.

Can’t you stand it anymore?”

Lu Wan stared at the second son who was full of dissatisfaction, and then glanced at the eldest son who seemed to be submissive, but he was also unwilling to accept it. After a while, he said calmly: "Think about it for yourselves, what happened to the eldest prince and the second prince yesterday.

!”

When they heard about the eldest prince and the second prince, the two Lu brothers were puzzled at first, but when Lu Wan said the next words, their unruly faces suddenly turned into fear.

"Those two are still real royal nobles, the emperor's biological sons. They are greedy and ignorant. They like to bully their younger brothers even when they have nothing to do. What will happen to them in the end? As elder brothers, they don't act like elder brothers. This is a taboo for the emperor. Plus you guys

He has already joined the court as an official, and even his own younger brother is jealous of him. What do you think the image of such an official is in the eyes of the emperor?"

Lu Wan repeatedly combined punches, beating his two self-righteous sons to death, and then walked away in annoyance. However, after walking through the front yard and arriving at the door of Mrs. Lu's house in the inner yard, she heard her always gentle words.

His wife was speaking in a sharp voice to several maids inside, and he suddenly frowned. Then, he heard words that were simply unbelievable to him.

"Tell the tailor to make it just like this. When it's done, send it to the house over there. Pack two boxes of my clothes and put them there. I'll be living there often anyway!"

Lu Wan also heard from his wife that Lu Sanlang and Liu Qing would move out when they got married, so that the whole family would not be crowded in this house and the discord between brothers and sisters-in-law would get deeper and deeper. His wife told him that in the future

I will go there from time to time to visit and occasionally stay for two days. But now I hear this, not just occasionally, but also plan to stay there regularly!

He didn't notice that there was no girl or servant guarding the door at this time. He subconsciously walked to the door and planned to go in. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lu's voice came from the room again.

"That fat boy Sanlang has not been favored by his father and his two brothers since he was a child. He has been bullied all day long. Now that he is old and promising, of course he does not want to look at other people's faces. As a mother, I will not run away from both sides. In the future, the relationship between father and son will be

Who knows how much will be left? Take today's crowning ceremony as an example. To put it nicely, it means Saburo and his teacher are invincible, but to put it badly..."

"Others will definitely laugh at our Lu family's lack of discipline. We let all kinds of cats and dogs in! If it weren't for someone's connivance, how could we let such an uninvited guest in? It's all because of my poor discipline, and the two older ones didn't teach it well, but that's the case.

His father used to indulge the two brothers when he saw how successful they were in studying, but he felt that I was partial!"

"I'm biased, but my father didn't love Sanlang in the past. If my mother doesn't love me anymore, how will he live? Now that he has made a difference, I'm happier than anyone else! The family can live like two families. It's said that

It’s a joke to go out!”

As Lu Wan listened, he felt that if he barged in like this, his wife might scold him later, and it might become a joke. With a gloomy expression, he could only turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that he had just been discharged from the hospital.

The door, the curtain at the door of the house over there moved slightly.

The girl who had been watching the movement through the crack in the door suddenly came to Mrs. Lu and whispered that the master was gone. Mrs. Lu, who had just put her hands on her hips like a shrew, breathed a sigh of relief and sat down. She patted her waist and sighed: "This

It’s true at home that in the past, Saburo was looked down upon by no one except my mother, but now that he has become famous, he is hated by others.”

"If we don't teach those two elders a lesson today, they will do something even more outrageous tomorrow! I don't know who these big-hearted people are following! Their father also knows how to take a step back and the world will be brighter for him."

Come on, why are these two so stupid!"

Mrs. Lu continued to scold her, but after the scolding, she couldn't help but hesitate. Of course, she was not helpless at all. She could discipline her daughter-in-law to discipline her son, but she never liked doing this. After all, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law

She was from a well-known family. But if her husband was just going to settle the matter like this, she would have to step forward even if she wanted to show off her face.

If we don't teach the two elders a lesson now, after they die as husband and wife, and the whole family starts quarreling about housework, wouldn't it be a joke in the whole capital? Even if there is no housework and they are strangers to each other, then she is

Don’t worry if you die!

She thought about it and ordered her maid to go out to inquire about the news. As soon as she learned that Lu Sanlang came back, she was called to the study by Lu Wan. Also called were the eldest son and the second son. Although she knew that she was the best mother.

Don't try to make an argument, so as to avoid the embarrassment of the father and son, but after much thought, she couldn't help it, and finally decided to go there herself.

As a result, just like Lu Wan stopped in front of her door before, she heard some noise before she reached the study and immediately stopped. Because the voice there was that it was the eldest son He Ci who always had a high self-esteem.

Zi Zheng was apologizing to his brother in a low voice!

The little fat man didn't expect that his two brothers would actually apologize to him, especially when the eldest brother reflected with a heavy face on his selfish motives for letting people come in to cause trouble for him. The second brother reflected that he shouldn't be blinded by envy, jealousy and hatred.

I couldn't help but want to turn my head and look outside the door to see if the sun was coming out in the west.

However, seeing his father's gloomy face, the little fat man finally said very obediently: "The two brothers are just joking with me. It's such a trivial matter, why do you need to apologize?"

However, after such an extremely beautiful sentence, he suddenly changed the topic and said: "Furthermore, today the Emperor is here in person, I will treat others in their own way, and I will defeat the four troublemakers.

The few blackboards that the teacher and I had were ironclad proof of victory, and it’s not in vain that I had people make thirty or fifty blackboards in advance to keep them at home in order to prevent this from happening.”

"After today, anyone who wants to provoke our teachers and students should think carefully about it!"

I made thirty or fifty blackboards in advance...

This time, it was Lu Wan's turn to feel that the majestic expression on his face was about to freeze. At that time, he felt that Ah Liu had brought in a blackboard on the left and a blackboard on the right. This situation was very strange, just like a street trick, but he didn't expect it.

My fat son had been prepared for it, but Ye Mengqiu and the four others just happened to hit the sharp spearhead!

After Lu Sanlang said these sharp words, he smiled and bowed his hands to the two brothers who were smiling extremely unnaturally: "I was not sensible before, and my eldest and second brothers were both affected. I haven't treated you well yet.

I have apologized, and this matter will be over today. Not to mention you, even the four of you, Ye Mengqiu, are not acquainted without fighting. I just sent someone to deliver a few boxes of books to them."

In Lu Wan's opinion, the smile on her fat son's face was like the cunning look of a fox when it plots to get a fat chicken.

"In that box of books, there are not only the "Four Yuan Jade Mirror" and "Measuring the Circle Sea Mirror" that I mentioned before at the ceremony, but also all the books that have not been lost among the ten scriptures, and there are many more.

Other arithmetic classics. I dare say that except for my Sansan Bookstore, no one in this capital can produce as many arithmetic books as I can."

"As for the New Edition of Gurdjieff's Arithmetic, I won't give it away, lest others say I have ulterior motives."

The little fat man said with a smile: "Moreover, I sent it in the name of teacher, and I also said that it is not easy to be a mathematician, and everyone should help each other. In this way, repaying evil with kindness, if someone is talking nonsense outside, I think Ye Mengqiu and the others

, should you go out and speak fair words, should you keep silent, or should you speak evil words?"
