ps: I'm really sorry, something happened today, I came back late, in order to express Lao Yu's apology, I also responded to the request of the book friend "Flying Angels in Hell", and added a new chapter today!In addition, ask for tickets and collect!

As soon as the voice outside fell, the cotton curtain at the door of the shed was pulled open, and then a young man with a long face walked in, bowed deeply to Wang Lun and said, "My nephew pays respects to Wang Shibo carefully!"

The person who came in was Xu Shenzhong. He got a way from Zhou Zhong before, so that those rich and unkind businessmen in Songjiang Mansion could donate again.As a result, after he returned home and told his father, Xu Zhifu was also overjoyed. He also believed that this method is very feasible. After two days of preparation, it will finally be officially implemented today. The reason why he came to see Wang Lun was also for the smooth Implement a thorough approach.

Seeing that the person who came in was Xu Shenzhong, Wang Lun smiled warmly and said, "Shenzhong, why do you have time to come to my place in such a cold weather? Hurry up and sit down, don't catch a cold!"

Wang Lun and Xu Zhifu are close friends, and Xu Shenzhong also learned some medical skills from Wang Lun when he was a child, so although the two are not mentors and apprentices in name, their relationship is actually similar to that of a master and apprentice.

"Hey, my nephew is here to inform Wang Shibo of something at the order of his father!" Wang Lun watched Xu Shenzhong grow up, and he was very open in front of him, so he naturally didn't have too many scruples when speaking.But then he asked again, "By the way, just now my nephew heard Wang Shibo losing his temper outside the door. What, does anyone else dare to make you angry?"

Hearing Xu Shenzhong ask about what he was angry with just now, Wang Lun couldn't help but said angrily: "Hmph, it's not my good son-in-law Zhou Zhong, there was something wrong with his family some time ago, and it's almost resolved now, but it doesn't matter. Knowing to visit my mansion and talk about the situation at home, it would make me feel at ease, but up to now, I haven't visited once, how can I not be angry?"

"Zhou...Zhou Zhong?" Xu Shenzhong was stunned after hearing this, "Wang Shibo, are you talking about Zhou Zhong and Zhou Wenda who wrote Journey to the West?"

"Hmph! Except for that bastard who is not doing business properly, who would write that kind of wild talk?" Wang Lun snorted coldly. Although he also likes Journey to the West, he doesn't want to show it in front of the younger generation. Come out, lest you lose your status as an elder.In addition, he heard that even Xu Shenzhong, who had just arrived in Songjiang, had heard of Zhou Zhong's name, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, but he didn't show it on his face.

Hearing that Zhou Zhong was Wang Lun's son-in-law, Xu Shenzhong really felt that the world was too small, and at the same time secretly felt sorry for his cousin Xie Lingyun. When he saw Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun standing together before, he couldn't help but match up Their thoughts, unfortunately, now seem to be impossible.

Speaking of it, although Xu Shenzhong and Wang Lun shared the same teacher and student, it is understandable that he did not know that Wang Lun's daughter was engaged to Zhou Zhong, because Wang Lun had six daughters in total, and the youngest daughter was engaged to Zhou Zhong. , was nearly ten years younger than Xu Shenzhong, and the two had never met each other, and when this Miss Wang got engaged to Zhou Zhong, Xu Shenzhong had already gone to Suzhou to study, so he didn't know about it at all.

After Xu Shenzhong was surprised, he quickly recovered. Seeing that Wang Lun seemed to be really angry with Zhou Zhong, he hurriedly smiled and explained for Zhou Zhong: "Wang Shibo, you have wrongly blamed Wenda. It won't be long, but he is definitely not the kind of person who doesn't know how to behave, and he is too busy during this time, I am afraid that even if he wants to visit you, it will be difficult to find time!"

"Hmph, what's he busy with? Could someone force him to write that Journey to the West?" Wang Lun said angrily.

"Hey, Wang Shibo, you really guessed it right this time. There are indeed people who forced him to write Journey to the West, and my nephew is one of them!" Xu Shenzhong said, and said that he wanted to copy Journey to the West as a birthday present for the teacher. Then, because of lack of time, Zhou Zhong and Zheng Jing helped him copy it, and later Xie Lingyun bought Journey to the West and asked Zhou Zhong to hand in the first half of the manuscript a year ago.

"So that's how it is!" After listening to Xu Shenzhong's explanation, most of Wang Lun's anger towards Zhou Zhong had dissipated in his heart, but in the end he still insisted, "No matter how busy you are, it won't take much time if you spare time to visit my house. Fortunately, he is also a scholar, and none of his five brother-in-laws are as ignorant of etiquette as him!"

"Yes yes yes~, Wenda didn't visit Wang Shibo, it was a little rude, when I see him next time, I will definitely teach Wang Shibo a good lesson on behalf of him!" Xu Shenzhong couldn't see that Wang Lun's anger had subsided, But in order to take care of the old man's face, he can only follow what Wang Lun said.

"By the way, Wang Shibo, you may not know that Wenda has helped my father a lot this time. The reason why I came to you today is because of Wenda." Xu Shenzhong finally remembered the purpose of coming to Wang Lun today, Immediately opened the mouth and said.

"Oh, Zhou Zhong is just a little scholar, what can he do to help your father?" Wang Lun said in amazement again.

"Wang Shibo, don't worry, it's a bit troublesome to explain this matter, but with your experience in the officialdom, just listen to the few words my father asked me to bring to you, and you will definitely understand what's going on!" Xu Shenzhong When he said these words, a smile very similar to Zhou Zhong appeared on his face.

"What does your father want to tell me?" Wang Lun became more and more confused after hearing this.

"Hehe, in fact, my father just wanted to inform you that in order to commend the people of Songjiang for their support for the disaster relief efforts, especially the generosity of many people who donated money and property, the government decided to erect a monument of merit and virtue outside the north gate, and will donate Write down the names, hometowns, addresses, and donations of the benefactors, so that they can be passed down to future generations, and after thousands of years, everyone will remember their merits!" When Xu Shenzhong mentioned the word merit, he really Can't help laughing out loud.

"Hahahaha~" Wang Lun was taken aback when he heard it, and then burst out laughing. The beard on his chin trembled with his laughter, which looked very interesting.

I saw Wang Lun laughing for a long time, finally stopped, panting and asked: "Shen... Shenzhong, this... this method is really wicked, if this monument of merit is really erected Get up, I'm afraid your father will be scolded to death by those rich and unkind people! Hahahaha~" Wang Lun burst into laughter again after speaking.

The stele of meritorious deeds is exactly what Zhou Zhong came up with. Don't underestimate this mere stone. If this stone stele is really erected, the names and donation amounts of all donors will be engraved on it. Families such as the Xie family, the Xie family, and the Wang family all donated at least a few hundred taels of silver, but others only donated a few dozen taels or even a few taels. They were also rich families in Songjiang Prefecture. Those who donated too little The rich are almost ashamed.

What's even more wicked is that Zhou Zhong even proposed to engrave the hometown and address of the donors. In this way, those who donated more can naturally live forever, and even their descendants will feel honored.But for those who donate too little, not only will they be ashamed, but even their descendants will be ridiculed. This is even more uncomfortable than killing them.

However, Wang Lun, who was laughing out loud, soon felt that something was wrong, because Xu Shenzhong said just now that Zhou Zhong had done his father a big favor. Could it be that this so-called "big favor" was...

Thinking of this, Wang Lun finally came to his senses, his laughter stopped abruptly and he said, "Wait, Shen Zhong, you're not telling me that Zhou Zhong came up with this wicked way of setting up a monument of meritorious deeds, right?"

"Wang Shibo, although I also find it unbelievable, this method is indeed thought up by Wen Da." Xu Shenzhong said, talking about what everyone had said at the gathering at Zhou Zhong's home that day, and the reason why Zhou Zhong proposed this method at the end. After talking about it again.

I saw that Wang Lun also showed an incredible expression after hearing this. In his impression, Zhou Zhong was actually a young man who only knew how to read. Wang Lun couldn't believe that Zhou Zhong would come up with such a wicked way?

"It's really strange. Could it be that Zhou Zhong always played stupid in front of me before? How could he come up with such a way?" Wang Lun finally murmured to himself. Xu Shenzhong saw this incident with his own eyes, so there must be no such thing. False, but Wang Lun still couldn't believe it.This feeling is like when he watched a child grow up, he always thought that the other party was a boy, but one day he suddenly discovered that the other party turned out to be a girl, the contrast was too great!

"Wang Shibo, in fact, I don't think it's surprising that Wenda can write a book like Journey to the West. Although it is based on anecdotes and monsters, the book has a thorough understanding of human relationships in the world. From this, it can be seen that Wenda must He also has an exquisite heart, but he didn't have the opportunity to show it because he had no worries about food and clothing before, and he devoted himself to studying, so he didn't have the chance to show it. Now that his family has undergone major changes, it finally made Wenda show his extraordinaryness!" Xu Shenzhong helped at this time. Zhou Zhong explained, although his explanation sounded unbelievable, but it could only be understood in this way.

Wang Lun also nodded after hearing this. He has been in the officialdom for many years, and he has met and experienced many more people and things than Xu Shenzhong. Son-in-law Zhou Zhong may be a person who cannot be guessed by common sense.

forget about it!It's a big deal to ask Zhou Zhong to go to the mansion afterwards, and see how he will explain it then?Finally, Wang Lun thought, of course, when Zhou Zhong goes, he must bring the rest of the manuscript of Journey to the West. The tenth chapter is written when Tang Taizong enters the underworld. I wonder if he can return it?

Thinking of Journey to the West, Wang Lun couldn't help feeling a little itchy in his heart, and he couldn't care less about Zhou Zhong's doubts.Then he remembered the matter of erecting the monument of meritorious deeds, and couldn't help laughing again. Now he really wanted to see what kind of expressions those rich and heartless guys in the city would show after receiving this news.
