Chapter 38 The bastard in ancient times who wanted to concentrate on his career 2
Maybe the original owner was determined to live alone.
The third time we met, my aunt was cautious again and again, lowering her demands again and again, and finally found the daughter of a scholar who taught in the county academy. She is famous for being a gentle lady who never steps forward or leaves the second door.
Nothing will happen now, right?
Take it easy.
During this meeting, my aunt was extremely cautious. She chatted with the scholar's wife for a long time and invited the scholar's wife to visit her four or five times before the conversation officially got on the right track.
After the two reached a verbal tacit understanding, they were ready to formally marry their two children. The mother-in-law of the original owner was also worried that something would go wrong, so she planned to find a matchmaker to come to propose marriage the next day, and set the wedding date closer so that the marriage could be completed as soon as possible.
The scholar's wife went back on what she had agreed to do the next day. A greeting card was delivered to the door, canceling the verbal engagement that the two families had signed yesterday, and vaguely saying that a noble man was interested in their daughter, and that their family had nothing to do, and so on. Just these few sentences were repeated over and over again, and I didn’t say which noble person it was.
Although the mother-in-law of the original owner was displeased, after what happened twice before, she still had concerns and didn't feel like saying anything, so she sent the scholar's wife back politely.
A few days later, she received the news that the scholar's daughter was brought back to the palace by the Crown Prince Cheng'en (the queen's nephew). While she breathed a sigh of relief, her aunt was completely numb.
Over and over again, the little Liu'an County must be some kind of feng shui treasure land with so many noble people patronizing it. She was puzzled.
For a moment, Yuan Xi didn't know whether to say that the original owner was destined to be an orphan, or that the original owner's legitimate mother had good judgment.
After several more failures, the original owner's marriage became a big problem, and even the Yongning Marquis Mansion in Yanjing heard about it. After passing the marriage age stipulated by the law of Yan State, the original owner had to pay single tax every year, which became more and more every year. But this little money is nothing to Magistrate Song, but his son's marriage really gives him a headache.
Ancient people were very superstitious. The original owner was an authentic ancient person, so he was naturally a member of the superstitious army. He thought it was God's will. After becoming obsessed with Taoist theory, he even wanted to become a Taoist and join the big family of Taoism.
His biological father, County Magistrate Song, disagreed and felt that he was evading his responsibilities. Yun had such a son, so he naturally disagreed. Her aunt also disagreed. She was afraid that outsiders would accuse her of being unkind and forcing her concubine to become a monk. She had no conscience. Treating the concubine harshly means sincerely looking for a wife for the concubine.
Several elders disagreed, thinking that the original owner had gone astray just because his marriage was not going well. After marrying a wife and having children, you will no longer have such thoughts.
Yuan Xi, who has the memory of the original owner, knows that the original owner really wanted to become a Taoist priest and had lost his worldly desires.
The family did not support it, or even suppressed it, so the original owner secretly studied it. Later, he met a charlatan and was killed while studying Taoist alchemy.
"It's a bit of a tragic death. What did the original owner want to do? Kill that charlatan?"
[The original owner wanted to become a Taoist priest, be upright and upright, and no one would object. 】
Yuan Xi can only feel this way about his deep love for the Taoist profession.
If Daozu knew that he would not accept him, he would be sorry for the original owner's infatuation.
"How can we be upright and have no objections?"
It’s true that ancient people were superstitious. They usually go there to burn incense, worship Buddha, and donate some money for sesame oil, from dignitaries to common people. However, there are very few people who are truly pious, especially those in the upper class. They pray sincerely when they need it, but they don't use it when they don't.
Schrödingerian faith.
The original owner's family has also become an obstacle. At this time, it is not as easy to fool as the homes of ordinary people.
If the front foot tells the county magistrate, the back foot will suffer a big fight.
Before Yuan Xi could think of any solution, there were maids and servants waiting for him to get up.
"Young Master, it's your first day at school. You can't be late."
Oh, I almost forgot, the New Year holiday is over and he is going to school again.
Let Ruyi dress him and wash him, "Young master, please put some pastries on your stomach. Aunt Yun specially prepared the pastries that young master likes to eat."
Ruyi used to be the maidservant of the original owner's mother-in-law, Aunt Yun, and was deeply trusted by her. Later, after she got married and had a child with the guard of the house, she was transferred to the original owner by Aunt Yun and followed the original owner to the front yard.
After Yuan Xi finished his snacks, he took his young boy Qingzhu to school.
The school was a courtyard specially opened by the county magistrate in the front yard, and an old master with a reputation as a scholar was invited to enlighten the children.
On the road, he met his third brother, who was two years older than him, and they walked together.
The original owner only started enlightenment last year, so his learning progress was different and he had less homework.
I received ten large-character assignments and ended the day's class.
Yuan Xi had never learned calligraphy, and his handwriting was no better than that of a child. After writing the ten ugly characters, he covered them up out of sight and out of mind, and decided to learn calligraphy well.
His words are just like his person. With his current calligraphy skills, how can he be a qualified cultivator in the future?
The next day.
After signing in casually.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining "Zhaoxia Breathing Method"]
"hiss."
Yuan Xi became excited.
After falling down again, he smiled like an idiot and was happy all day long.
"The young master seems to be in a good mood today."
Yuan Xi touched his face, "Really? I just had a sweet dream last night."
He just found an excuse to deal with it, and Ruyi believed it.
"Fourth brother, why are you smiling so happily?"
"No, third brother, I just had a sweet dream last night." The same perfunctory tone.
"Then stop laughing, you look like a fool."
Yuan Xi couldn't stop laughing. He looked at Third Brother's innocent eyes and comforted himself that he was just a child, so don't worry about a child.
It's no wonder Yuan Xi smiled so happily. He just learned from Wu Ba that there is spiritual energy in this world. How could this not make him happy.
Although the spiritual energy is low, it is better than the last world. At least this world allows cultivation. According to Wuba's speculation, cultivation can only be done to the foundation building stage. No higher level is possible. This small world cannot provide higher-level existences.
"Zhaoxia Qi-eating Technique" is a technique for cultivating immortals. It is a technique created by the great power of this world. It relies less on spiritual energy and has some shortcomings. The progress of cultivation is very fast when the sun rises, and the efficiency of cultivation is as fast as at other times. Its touching.
"Wuba, are there any immortal cultivators in this world?"
[No, the spiritual energy is gradually decreasing, and in a few hundred years it will develop like the previous world. Those who can walk have left long ago, those who cannot walk have died long ago, and the inheritance of cultivating immortals has been cut off long ago. 】
"What a pity. I still want to experience what the world of immortality in the novel is like."
[As long as the host persists, one day he will go to the world of immortality to do a mission. 】
Wu Ba actively cheered Yuan Xi up.
...There will always be.
