Chapter 964 Charity Bazaar! (2)

Because this represents a bit of hope. A great dream of reading and learning calligraphy was once unthinkable. Now that there is such a charitable act of kindness by Princess Chunhui, the torch of the dream in the hearts of the people seems to be able to come true. burn up.

So starting in the early morning, more and more people gathered in the streets near Lingyun Building. Although it was impossible for them to go in to see the actual situation, they all came to have a look, maybe they could hear some news, isn't it good? of it!

As a result, there are more and more people in the streets and alleys, and there are also a lot of people who greet each other, and everyone is smiling.

"Let's go and have a look, the charity sale is held in Lingyun Building, let's go and have a look."

"Yeah, Princess Chunhui is really a good person, our Yuancheng has hope in the future."

"Isn't it? There are few scholars in Yuancheng, and naturally fewer people can pass the imperial examinations every time. Now I can have the opportunity to teach children. I'm so happy."

"That's right, let's go inside quickly, there will probably be no place for many people to stand in a while."

"The people of our original city are blessed. Princess Chunhui can help the people like this. We have to kowtow to the princess for a while. This kindness is too great!"

"Yes, yes, we will kowtow to Princess Chunhui in a while to thank you!"

"Yes, we must kowtow to the princess to thank you!"

Now more and more people are gathering towards the Lingyun Building in Yuancheng, but they are all quietly waiting for the arrival of the nobles, especially the arrival of Princess Chunhui. Thank you all for still being willing to do it.

Lingyun Tower is a century-old business in Yuancheng, and it is a time-honored brand in Yuancheng. Lingyun Tower should be regarded as a teahouse where poetry meets friends and literature discusses heroes.

Although Lingyun Building belongs to the category of tea houses, it has always been famous for providing vegetarian food, and Lingyun Building is a place where scholars gather, there are piano clubs, poetry clubs, painting clubs, book clubs, and chess clubs. Although the scale is not large, it is also a place where all educated people in Yuancheng like to come.

Of course, ordinary people can’t afford it, and the minimum consumption is more than a dozen taels of silver, but there are exceptions, that is, you have talent, or you have special care for the boss, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and poetry, so Yuancheng All scholars are honored to have entered Qianjiang Tower.

Over time, although Lingyun Tower is not as prosperous as other restaurants and inns in Yuancheng, its reputation is indeed something other places can't catch up with. Lingyun Tower is the property of Ouyang's family, the largest scholarly family in Yuancheng.

This Ouyang family can be said to be very famous in the original city. On the one hand, the Ouyang family has the most scholars and even Jinshi in the original city. On the other hand, the Ouyang family is also a century-old family.

There were also two emperor masters in Ouyang's family, and there was an old Mr. Ouyang who was handed down a great Confucianism. It is said that although the old man is gone, his calligraphy and paintings are works that are hard to find.

The family of the Ouyang family are all obsessed with learning and do not care about worldly affairs, they rarely appear in front of everyone, and they rarely participate in gatherings and banquets. It is also the best destination for many female relatives to marry into the Ouyang family, but the Ouyang family has strict requirements on the daughter-in-law who marries into the door, and the most important thing is character and virtue.

The rules of this family are also very strict and harsh on the clan members. Almost members of the Ouyang family rarely show their faces, only at the quarterly Lingyunlou poetry meeting, and other times the doors are closed.

The Ouyang family never entertained guests or participated in all kinds of dirty banquets that are boring and waste time. Everyone in Yuancheng has formed a habit of being so cold and aloof.

But just like this, the Ouyang family is also the sweet pastry in the eyes of the people of Yuancheng. The family history is strong, and the daughters-in-law of each house in the Ouyang family are also very virtuous and virtuous.

The family Ma once wanted Wan Qingxin to marry into was the Ouyang family, but they didn't give any reply at all, and even refused!

The reason is that the reputation gained by gaining fame behind the scenes does not meet the requirements of the Ouyang family for marrying a wife and a virtuous man, so Ma Shi was disgraced and shamed, and he was so angry that he refused all contacts with the Ouyang family, This thing is brooding!

This kind of thing almost happens every year in the Ouyang family, and they don't take it seriously. If people in this family are capable of being officials, they will be officials. Some of them are not officials, but the reputation of the Ouyang family is very famous not only in Yuancheng, but also in Qiguo.

Because the Ouyang family has the largest book compilation, printing and engraving workshop in Qiguo, which has made unparalleled contributions to Qiguo's education. The aristocratic family has a large library, which is said to have 10,000+ volumes.

This kind of figure is really astonishing. Although the price of food is not high, but the price of books is very high. The humble paper can be sold for a few taels of silver, so the difficult conditions of Yuancheng , there can still be scholars and scholars who have passed the examination, the Ouyang family has made a lot of contributions.

But after all, this family is noble, and it is very good to be able to print hundreds of books for the academy in Yuancheng every year for free, and occasionally go to Yuancheng Academy to give lectures, especially on the eve of every scientific examination. The Ouyang family will send someone to explain the points to be noticed during the scientific examination and the preparations that need to be done. Otherwise, there are so few scholars in the original city, and those who don’t adapt to the environment after going to the capital will just waste the travel expenses in the end. What good is there? Achievements to speak of.

So Qin Hui didn't pay attention to this family at the beginning, but after hearing what Old Man Ye said, he found out that there is such a big cultural boss in Yuancheng. The matter can be traced back to the end of the former dynasty, but for unknown reasons, the whole family was sent to this place. It is said that all the wealth of Wanguan's family was thrown away at that time, and only the books from this library came to Yuancheng.

Later, it took root and developed here. The clan branch of the Ouyang family may not have been here at the beginning. After a hundred years, there are not many people in this clan. It is probably because only the branch of the direct line continues. Qin Hui heard from Ye Laopa that later The head of Jincheng also invited the Ouyang family to go back, but the Ouyang family also refused.

However, during the last banquet at the City Lord's Mansion, Qinhui asked Uncle Yi to post posts to all the families in Yuancheng, and it turned out that the Ouyang family did not come. This has always been the state of the Ouyang family, and no one cared about it.
