How lively is Changlang Village now? It’s like celebrating the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
It's a good day. I live in Shiliba Village and have many relatives here, so I'll come.
Although Wang Ruqian sold himself, he lived a very good life.
A group of people sat by the river and joked: "Wu Liang wants to sell himself, but the lady thinks he is ugly!"
Hahahaha! Everyone laughed wildly, and Qingshan laughed in response to the roar of the river.
Someone ran over and shouted: "Sun Wanqing is here!"
A group of people were extremely excited: "What is he doing here?"
Another person was excited: "I can't get through at the intersection!" and said, "Go and ask for Xu Sanlang."
A group of people here at Xu Fang said it was fine.
The boy insisted on pushing over and shouting: "Master Sun is here!"
Wang Ruqian and Lin Feng said: "There were so many people that they all crowded into the river."
Before Lin Feng could take action, the Yan family's servants and a group of people threw the young boy into the river indiscriminately.
Xu Fang was not so tough originally. However, Sun Wanqing's fields were not as good as this, and Sun Wanqing's character was extremely bad.
There may be no one who says it to my face, but I don’t know how many people scold me behind my back.
Think no one in the You family scolds you? Just scolding is of no use.
Most people cannot reach the level of the You family, and now they are all slaves of the You family. Even if Sun Wanqing is more down-to-earth, he is not as good as the You family, but with three thousand acres of fertile land, it is not comparable to ordinary landowners.
Xu Fang is a scholar and is not afraid: "There are many people who fall into the river. People fall into the river even at night."
Scholars, do you get up at night as soon as you open your mouth?
Some scholars echoed: "There is also a river next to my house, and many people fall into it when they are drunk."
Some people are curious: "Why did you fall into the river when you were drunk?"
Wang Ruqian followed suit: "I guess you still want to drink?"
Everyone found it very interesting for a while, haha!
Some people climbed to the mountain, high up, and looked at the entrance of the village.
Changlang Village is really magical. It is a long stretch and the entrance of the village is relatively large. If you come closer, it looks like a neck, and it is blocked by a group of people playing.
It's not that they refused to get out of the way, it was Sun Wanqing's gorgeous carriage posing outside.
Ordinarily, there must be a greeting card or something like that. He came in person, and the Xu family went to invite him. He was an honored guest.
The Xu family was very busy here. Some people wanted to go, but they were all disturbed by what happened just now.
Since the visitor is not a good person, he is not really a guest.
An old man approached Xu carefully: "Isn't this good? It's almost noon. After all, the visitor is a guest, so there is no need to offend anyone."
Xu Fang said: "You are so rare, why don't you please go back?"
Mrs. Xu Fang came out and said, "I can't curry favor. If you want to curry favor, just go. I won't envy you if you curry favor."
If I wanted to fawn over, I would have already fawned over Yu Er.
If you wanted to be afraid, you would have been afraid of Yu Er a long time ago. I am quite courageous.
The old man was not happy.
The old lady was too lazy to pay attention to him: "I can't even entertain serious guests, please forgive me!"
Wang Ruqian, Yan Jingren and others said: "No, no, it's us who have disturbed you."
My mother was happy: "You are willing to come here to give me face! Just don't dislike it!"
She continued her work. It would be great if she could entertain these serious people.
The Xu family came over to express their gratitude: "The Sun family has never had any friendship with us."
An old lady said: "He doesn't like him at all. If he was polite, he wouldn't be like this. Look at these, which one can he compare to?"
If you really go to someone's home as a guest, you won't be too picky. The old Confucian didn't say anything when he sat by the river, so people are not picky?
What's more, the Xu family is so busy, why should we pay attention to him when he comes to cause trouble? That's mean!
Someone laughed and said, "Maybe it's for Mr. Wang."
The old lady responded: "It doesn't matter who he is coming for. Hey, some people like to be mean. You can really wag your tail and see if he will reward you with two bones."
Then I would be embarrassed to try to curry favor with you.
Although some people are thick-skinned, sometimes they cannot tell the truth.
Some people sneered: "Let's see what Xu Fang can do?"
The village man whipped him and said, "Keep your eyes open and watch!"
A chaotic scene.
Wang Ruqian sat by the river and felt really quiet.
Xu Fang worked hard. After all, the environment he grew up in wasn't a good one, so he just got used to it.
Zuo Yongzhi is a guest, so he doesn't have to worry too much about the host's affairs. He can think while others are busy.
So, this weirdness can continue.
It's noon and quite hot.
Wang Ruqian suggested: "Why don't you just eat something here?"
The stone platform is big enough, so there will definitely be enough food for you.
Yan Jingren was the first to agree. Sitting at the table can really be avoided. With this chaos, it would be better to be by the river.
Just like leaning against a mountain, at least one side is quiet.
It's also clean under the big trees by the river.
If you rub it around in other places, it's fine if you're covered in mud, but you're afraid of bringing poop with it.
When Xu Fang is concerned about his own conditions, he will not feel inferior if he is not vain. If he is not good, he will come less often.
What's more, this family raised him, and it was only bustling during the New Year.
Normally, everyone is too busy to come so much.
There are also some who come to cause trouble, which he still doesn’t know how to deal with.
Even if it was caused by Wang Ruqian, it is not to blame.
Everyone agreed, so the Confucians ate on the stone table.
The servants distributed the food and ate at the nearby table. They still surrounded the place.
This is a very lively meal.
Wang Ruqian was holding a large bowl of rice, which was full of vegetables, which was pretty good.
Zuo Yongzhi imitated his example and ate like this to save trouble. After all, it was not just a meal.
Xu Fang’s wife actually cooked a lot, large pieces of meat, chicken, duck and fish, which was very rich.
The old Confucian sat aside, drinking a little wine, blowing the river breeze, and said with a smile: "Summer is the best here."
Xu Fang said: "We spend the summer enjoying the cool air by the river, but there are many mosquitoes."
Women like Liao Shuixian were sitting in the house eating.
A young lady asked Liao Shuixian: "Do you want to study?"
Liao Shuixian responded: "There are always old ladies in the country who make jokes, or whose children cannot be taught well. We have no other abilities, and this study is not difficult. In the future, at least we will not hold back and embarrass people when we go out."
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Xu Fang's sister-in-law said: "Aren't country people less knowledgeable? If they are less knowledgeable, they learn! It's not like they are stupider than others!"
The tone of the Xu family has been set.
It is not a blind comparison, but a clear improvement.
Once you earn money and have money, you should learn what you should learn for no other reason. Once you learn it yourself, you don’t need to rely on others.
Liao Shuixian said: "People outside are not easy to get along with, and they will try to trick you in various ways. If you don't understand, you have no place to complain."
Therefore, it is not enough for one person to work hard, everyone must work together.
At least it can't be held back.
The little lady Qiqi asked: "How easy is it to study?"
My sister-in-law smiled and said, "That's easy for people."
Another woman was even more sad: "Some things are not something everyone can do."
For example, she seizes the opportunity and takes a big piece of meat in one bite.
Liao Shuixian refused to touch her and watched her almost finish the job alone.
This is not a question of whether you have something to eat or not, but a matter of basic courtesy as a guest.
Although the host will cook something delicious and entertain guests.
