The streets of Bianjing were filled with snow. Zhang Yue looked at the bustling crowds around him. Zhang Yue thought that he was still alone, and his feelings of loneliness couldn't help but come to his heart at this moment.

Now Zhang Yue is not the boy who had nothing in Bianjing. He has accumulated some wealth and has a shop by carving seals.

But even so, he was just a piece of snowflakes all over the sky, and there was nothing special about it.

Zhang Yue came to Jiyuezhai.

This episode of Yuezhai is not far from Taixue. Zhang Yue has passed by before, but he didn't feel any other difference. He only knew that there were many donkey and mule carts parked on weekdays, and he didn't realize that there was another world until he walked inside.

Jiyuezhai is not an ordinary teahouse. There are famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on it. Flower stands on the left and right, and strange pine and cypresses are arranged. There are even such a scene as the "Xian Cave and Fairy Bridge" inside, which is used as a private room. Many ladies in the teahouse do not even cover their faces and openly sit in the market to eat tea.

When Zhang Yue entered, he felt the eyes of several women looking at him.

I think the atmosphere in the Northern Song Dynasty was still relatively open, and many women from ordinary scholars and officials showed up in public.

For example, Sima Guang and Cheng Yi Neo-Confucians also vigorously advocate that women should not see the middle door, but that they must be covered when they go out. This is only in terms of promotion, the atmosphere has not yet been fully popular.

When Zhang Yue arrived, a waiter came forward and greeted, "What tea should guests eat? We have Qibao Leicha, pine, onion tea, and clear tea. If you don't eat tea, you can also eat a bowl of salt and drum soup."

Zhang Yue thought to himself, he was considerate.

Zhang Yue asked: "Is there any place to sell tea?"

“Of course there are.”

"I wonder what tea do you buy?"

“Herbal tea.”

“Yes, please come here for the guest.”

Zhang Yue walked away with the waiter, and the ladies who were having tea on the side took their eyes and whispered to each other.

Although I can't hear it seriously, I often have words like "sexuals", "scholars", and "scholars".

Zhang Yue walked to the tea sale room, but saw a beautiful maid serving here.

Now when I look closely, I see that there are more teas in it, most of them are herbal tea, and most of them are tea cakes, most of which are Beiyuan tea from Jianyang.

Zhang Yue asked: "There is a herbal tea with jasmine fragrance."

The maid smiled and said, "The guest official is really an expert. This tea has just been consigned here, but not much of it is known in Bianjing City."

The other party took out the tea, Zhang Yue sniffed it and looked at it. It was indeed good at what he had done when he told Ouyang Fa that he had told him.

Zhang Yue immediately bought some under the gaze of the beautiful maid.

Just as he was about to buy and leave, he ran into someone and said, "Isn't this Zhang Sanlang?"

Zhang Yue looked familiar with the other party, and the man smiled and bowed, "Sanlangjun, I am the subordinate of Wu Dalangjun. When I entered Bianjing from Pucheng, I had a friendship with Sanlangjun."

Zhang Yue suddenly realized that it was like that.

"Sanlangjun, please sit for a while, and the eldest son will come soon."

Zhang Yue didn't expect to meet Wu Anshi here and said, "That's fine."

Zhang Yue went to the inner room to have tea, and soon Wu Anshi arrived.

The two of them bowed with a smile.

"Sanlang, why haven't I been sitting in the house recently? Could it be that I have some negligence? You and I have a relationship with each other in times of trouble."

Zhang Yue muttered in his heart that only you can mention this saying of sharing hardships and hardships. If you mention it yourself, you will become a high-level person.

"I have been busy with my studies recently, so I will visit Dalangjun's mansion another day."

Wu Anshi nodded. He looked at Zhang Yue, but he didn't expect to meet Zhang Yue here.

The answer to the wishful choice of Seventeen Niang lies in Liu Ji, and Zhang Yue felt that in addition to being a handsome talent, he dared not easily argue about the future.

However, a few days ago, Wu returned to his house and told his mother and his wife that Zeng Gong had fallen in love with Zhang Yue. At first, he didn't care, because the Zeng family's family was obviously not as good as his Wu family.

But Wu Anshi thought about it again, who was Zeng Gong?

Ouyang Xiu's most proud student, although he was defeated by Xiang Ping, he had a good family management method. When several sisters were able to marry, they all had a good destination.

Wu Anshi regretted it a little. He thought carefully that although Zhang Yue was young, his vision and knowledge were still great, not to mention that he had mastered the Eleventh Classics before he was less than fifteen years old.

Chen Shengzhi, Ouyang Xiu, and Chen Xiang, who are good at camera, are optimistic about him, and now even Zeng Gong is the same.

At present, it seems that Zhang Yue is not only poorly written poetry, but also a talented and beautiful girl among the Han family. Zeng Gong was interested in Zhang Yue's affairs, and the whole family knew about it, but he was only hiding it from Shiqi Niang.

At this moment, Wu Anshi no longer dared to treat Zhang Yue as an ordinary Han family, but smiled and said, "Sanlang, what have you done recently?"

Zhang Yue told himself truthfully that he had studied poetry and essays in Chen Xiangna.

Wu Anshi looked at Zhang Yue with a high glance and thought to himself, his second brother said that Sanlang was not good at poetry, but if he followed Chen Xiang to learn it, it would be hard to say what would happen in the future.

Wu Anshi regretted that she had another sister.

I think Zeng Gong has a very advantageous position. There are three girls who have no girls to get married. Even if you bet wrong, it’s nothing.

This is really a disruption of the market.

However, the Zeng family was so poor that they could hardly bear the money they had to go to Beijing to take the exam. Although several brothers have passed the Jinshi, their family is still quite poor, which is not as good as that.

Zhang Yue said: "I wonder where Dalangjun's jasmine tea comes from?"

Wu Anshi immediately said intentionally or unintentionally: "I don't know this. I am the servants of my wife who are taking care of it on weekdays. I forgot to say that this tea shop is my wife's dowry. There are twenty or thirty shops like this in my Wu family in Bianjing."

Zhang Yue nodded and said, "My grandpa is really a big family and a big business."

Wu Anshi's implication is very clear, but if he knew that Chen Xiang would have warned Zhang Yue, he would definitely not have said that.

In a nutshell, if the family is not a good match, how can it be a good marriage?

No matter how much dowry is, it is also a property of a wife. Although the Song Dynasty's laws all included in the name of the head of the household, the wife's wealth must be stated in the household post, and it is convenient to divide it in the future.

The husband uses his wife’s wealth privately. Although such things rarely come to court, they will be condemned in public opinion.

  The one who is as comfortable as the eldest brother Zhang Shi, who comes to support his and his second brother’s study expenses, thanks to his unwilling sister-in-law, but his father-in-law and brother-in-law both despise his elder brother.

Even the rich people are like this. Going forward, officials like Liu Jiancheng are already smart. They obviously denied others, but in the end they were all notorious.

Not to mention being one step higher than Liu Jiancheng, the higher the class of meat eaters, the more careful the calculations. Even if the children produce some playboys, they are not really knowledgeable. They have no money or background, and they are self-righteous in calculating with others, and their fate is not very good.

Even if you marry, you will be controlled by your father-in-law or wife in the future. Marrying a wife will become a job, which is really boring. It is better to marry a jass girl from a small family. Even if you can't be rich, you can know the cold and the heat and live a quiet life.

Of course, those who can think this way must also be capable or have a very clear understanding of others.

It’s like this kind of family business, you can make money by yourself. Why do you have to look at other people’s faces for the rest of your life?

If you have a skeptic, you can be willful.

Zhang Yue sat on Wu Anshi for a while and talked, without seeing any strangeness, but he didn't ask any more questions from beginning to end, and then got up and said goodbye.

After Zhang Yue left, Wu Anshi sat for a while before he realized that when he mentioned his wealth, his words hit him.

When Zhang Yuelai Jiyuezhai, he wanted to explore who made this jasmine tea, but now he feels that he is thinking too much again.

You are normal, but girls don’t look down on you anyway.

When he arrived at Chen Xiang’s mansion, he gave the jasmine tea he bought directly to the teacher.

Chen Xiang is a person from Fuzhou who is accustomed to jasmine flowers. Now, seeing someone actually scented this flower into tea leaves, it suddenly became wonderful.

Chen Xiang praised him endlessly and even felt a little homesick.

Zhang Yue thought to himself that even if he gave gold and silver, he would never make Chen Xiang so happy. However, this jasmine tea was the right one.

When giving gifts, you have to understand people’s hobbies.

"These teas cost a lot. I will give you the money I bought them."

Zhang Yue said: "Students are also donated by others, but I don't know how much it costs."

Chen Xiang looked at Zhang Yue deeply and said, "It's okay, I'll accept it."

Chen Xiang continued to teach Zhang Yue’s poems and essays.

Zhang Yue handed over all the poems and essays he wrote in these days.

Poetry still needs to be accumulated in life, and cultivate enthusiasm in daily life, but if you think and feel something, you should write it down.

The method Chen Xiang taught himself before was indeed useful.

Zhang Yue wrote more than a dozen poems this time, all of which were written by his daily life. One time, he even took a bath and wiped half of his pancreas, but unexpectedly he became interested in poetry, so he immediately went to write it down.

In other words, it means "emotion is moved in the middle and manifested in words."

Chen Xiang looked at it, nodded slightly and said, "It finally improved a little."

Zhang Yue thought to himself that he still got a little word. He didn’t even put in such a great effort to recite the Nine Sutras. It seems that he is really not talented.

Chen Xiang said: "But your poem has a fallacy, and the east wind refers to summer. 'The north wind is winter, the south wind is summer, the east wind is spring, and the west wind is autumn'. I usually write poems without borrowing the common sayings of spring, summer, autumn and winter. These formats are talked about by later generations. When I come to the imperial examination, I am afraid that some examiners will not like it, so I am so a convention has been made."

"Students remembered it." Zhang Yue said humbly.

"Okay, let's have a meal!" Chen Xiang said.

Zhang Yue saw that Chen Xiang had little talk about his poems today, but he was used to the teacher's daily learning of poetry and essays and classics, and talking about life patterns during meals.

Sure enough, Chen Xiang said, "Then Zeng Zigu has many praises to you after he left."

Zhang Yue heard: "This matter is serious?"

Seeing Chen Xiang’s face being solemn, Zhang Yue hurriedly said, “Mr. Zeng praised him so much, but the students really can’t afford it.”

Chen Xiang laughed and said, "You don't have to do this. The last time I told you that you are about to discuss a marriage, how do you consider it yourself?"

Zhang Yue said: "It's still what the teacher said about being a good match. However, I often hear that I will not marry a wife without gaining fame, so I want to discuss marriage later and find a good match when I succeed."

"But before entering Fujian, my brother had an explanation. Now he is in the capital and has his own ideas. Students have little knowledge and no idea. Marriage is the order of parents and the words of the matchmaker. Mr. Ouyang and his husband are both my elders, so they ask the two elders to make the decision."

Chen Xiang looked very happy when he heard this, but he wanted to ask, "Don't you ask your second brother what he meant?"
