Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 21 Looking at Feng Shui

Mr. Zhang is the only Fengshui master in Qili Town. He is very good at fortune-telling, ghost hunting, and Fengshui.

Hearing that the Ye family wanted to invite Mr. Zhang to see the house, the Tang family from Shanghe Village immediately surrounded him.

There is a scholar from the Ye family, that is the elder son Ye Fengxian of the old man.

On the other hand, the Tang family produced two talented people, the eldest son and grandson of Mr. Tang. In this comparison, the status of the Tang family in Shanghe Village is naturally much higher than that of the Ye family.

The two families have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and forged a lot of tension.

Every time we meet, we have to say a few words of sarcasm.

At the gate of the Ye family, Mr. Tang, who was wearing a silk robe, stroked his beard, and said to Mr. Ye with a smile: "Mr. Grandson asks for advice, we are all from the same village, so we must not hesitate to teach you. If you don’t ask knowledge and ask ghosts and gods, it will be difficult to become a master in the end!"

"Fengxian's studies are very good," Mr. Ye straightened his face. "You don't need your hypocritical concern. In the next exam, our family Fengxian will definitely be admitted to Juren. And in this exam, our elder brother's Two children will definitely become Tongsheng."

"Is it to donate money to a child?" Mr. Tang laughed contemptuously.

In the Great Dragon Dynasty, if one wanted to become a Tongsheng, it was relatively easy. You could pass the exam to become a Tongsheng, or you could donate a Tongsheng by paying money to the county lord.

However, there are only a few quotas given by the county lord every year. If there is no connection, even if you have money, you will not be able to donate a child.

"Fart! The two grandchildren of my wife are hard-working and quick-witted, do they need to pay money to become children?" Mr. Ye was furious, because what Mr. Tang said made him feel guilty. His two grandsons are very knowledgeable. How, if others don't know, how can he not know?
If you don't spend money, you don't know when these two children will be admitted to Tongsheng.

The thin Mr. Zhang said gently: "Mr. Tang, why don't you look at the house first?"

"Yes, let's look at the house first." Mr. Ye said hastily.

Mr. Zhang first looked at the topography and landforms around Ye's house, and then went into the house to look around. After reading it, he shook his head: "The feng shui of this house is really beyond Juren."

When Mr. Ye heard this, his body shook immediately: "How could this happen?"

"Mr. Ye, please look around the house..." Mr. Zhang explained the whole story in detail, with simple language, and expressed the esoteric things in an easy-to-understand way, so that everyone who watched the excitement could understand .

"Then if we move to another house, will our family be able to raise someone?" Mr. Ye asked quickly.

"Who in your family wants to take the Juren exam? Can you tell me his birth date?"

Mr. Ye quickly said Ye Fengxian's birth date. Mr. Zhang counted with his fingers and shook his head.

"The first half of my life is stable and rich, and the second half of my life is poor and poor. Not only will I have no official luck, but I will also get into lawsuits."

"Then what about my other two grandsons?" Mr. Ye reported the birthdays of Dafang's two grandsons again.

After calculating for a moment, Mr. Zhang sighed.

Ye Qiongdan was helping his second brother copy books in the house at this time, and when he heard this, he immediately curled his lips.

Mr. Zhang really has some abilities. In the whole Ye family, except for the second elder brother Ye Qingyu, no one has the fate of being a farmer in the morning and going to the Tianzitang in the evening.

When the second elder brother's legs are healed, he will go to school to study hard. In less than ten years, he will be the number one scholar.

Mr. Ye was not in the mood to keep him for dinner, so he sent Mr. Zhang away with 50 taels of silver.

After Mr. Zhang left, Mr. Tang, who was in a good mood, immediately invited him to the Tang family mansion. After Mr. Zhang had read the feng shui of the Tang family mansion, he showed the face of Mr. Tang's eldest son, saying that he would be successful this year. lift.

As soon as this remark came out, the village suddenly boiled.

After the news of the Tang family came back to the Ye family, Mr. Ye's mood became even worse.

At this time, the villagers of the entire Shanghe Village also turned into hindsight, and mocked the Ye family contemptuously.

"I already knew that Ye Fengxian didn't win the exam! He hangs around Fireworks and Willow Lane every day. If he wins the exam, even a sow can climb a tree!"

"Isn't that so, so you have to be down-to-earth in learning, you can't do learning in Wenrou Township!"

"It's just pitiful for the second and third bedrooms. After working hard for more than 20 years, the bamboo basket fetched water in vain! I used to envy the second and third bedrooms of the Ye family. I thought they could enjoy the blessings after the big family was born. Now look at it. Come on, they are meat buns beating dogs and never coming back!"

……

Mr. Ye closed the door, not daring to see anyone.

Ye Qiongdan came out of the room and said to Mr. Ye: "Grandpa, I would like to accept the bet. From now on, I don't have to pay the big house anymore, right?"

"Don't even think about it! What do you believe in a fortune teller? You should believe your uncle! Your uncle is very knowledgeable, and he will definitely win the exam this year!" Mr. Ye trembled with anger, "Let me hear you say such things again, I will beat you to death!"

"It's said that people have no faith, but don't stand up. If grandpa breaks his promise, I will go to the patriarch of the Ye clan and Li Zheng, and let them uphold justice for me," Ye Qiongdan said word by word, "Grandpa, I said earlier Well, we Sanfang don't want to get rich anymore, so don't force us. You think it's an honor to force my parents to death, do you want to force a few more children to death?"

Mr. Ye was so angry that he couldn't say a word, and the daughter-in-law of the second room also made a fuss at the right time.

The second daughter-in-law has a loud voice, and half the village can hear her roar.

The villagers outside the door couldn't get in, so they shouted at the door.

"Old man, forget it, since Ye Fengxian can't win the exam, why do you pressure the second and third families to pay the money? Isn't this the same as raising rice worms?"

"For the sake of the second and third bedrooms who have worked so hard for the first bedroom for so many years, you should let them go!"

"They are also pitiful people. If this is the first room, how can the three maids in the second room say they are kissing? The Dan girl in the third room should say kissing too!"

……

Even some people who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, lied in the name of Mr. Ye and invited the Ye clan chief and Li Zheng over to let them take care of this matter.

The second daughter-in-law saw that the patriarch and Lizheng had both come, and immediately rushed to open the door, knelt at the feet of the patriarch and Lizheng, and began to cry bitterly.

Mr. Ye is also a face-saving person. This time he could only suffer from being dumb, so he said bitterly: "It is okay not to pay the big house in the future, but you are not allowed to separate the families! From now on, all the money earned by each house will be handed over to the public house. Middle. If you agree, I will make a written statement and ask the patriarch, Li Zheng and the villagers to testify, and we two elders will never force you to pay the big house!"

"Give it to the public? No!" The second wife immediately said, "It is enough to wrong our second room if we don't separate the family. The grain and crops that our second room worked so hard all year round were finally eaten by the first room. Now, we have to take We hand over all the money we earn to the public office? Who is in charge of the public account? Does the old lady take care of it? The old lady has always favored the big house, so why don't we live a miserable life with him!"

"If you can't, continue to pay Dafang! Keep paying until Dafang finds out a successor!" Old Master Ye said through gritted teeth.

The second daughter-in-law burst into tears, and people outside the door also said that Mr. Ye was cruel.

Ye Qinghan glanced at Ye Qiongdan, obviously waiting for her to make the decision.If she agrees, he will not say a word. If she disagrees, he will stand firmly by her side and fight for her in the Ye family.

Ye Qiongdan's expression was unexpectedly calm, and she said lightly: "I agree to hand over all the money I earn to the public. I think my pigs and wild brackens are very profitable in the city. In the future, I will definitely let the Ye family The days are getting more and more prosperous!"

Hearing this, Mr. Ye had a headache.

What is pig water?What is wild bracken?Can it be sold?

If the money is lost, the creditor will definitely come to the old lady in charge of the account book of the public office to ask for money. Is this still worth it?

But the words that are spoken are equal to the water that is poured out, what can he do?
"Okay, then it's settled like this," said the old man Ye, who was unable to get off the tiger. "Second daughter-in-law, think about it for yourself! Everyone else is gone, there is nothing to see."

Old Man Ye was in a bad mood, he forced a smile on his face, and saw off the patriarch and Li Zheng.

Ye Qiongdan squatted down and whispered in the ear of the second daughter-in-law: "Second aunt, didn't the old man tell us to hand over all the money we earned from the second and third bedrooms to the public? During this time, you and the three girls are also Don’t do embroidery work at home, go to the mountains every day to dig wild vegetables to eat, and don’t let the second uncle do carpentry, we will have no income if we don’t work, how can we pay the public if we don’t have income? At that time, things will turn around.”

The daughter-in-law of the second room was stunned for a moment, and immediately stopped crying. She wiped her tears with her hand and murmured, "That's right, let's be rice bugs too, let's see what the old man will do!"

Soon, ten days passed.

Ye Qiongdan and Ye Qinghan made a lot of money in muffled voices every day, and when they got home, they said they were still losing money, and they already owed a lot of money outside.

The old lady was so angry that she jumped on her feet and scolded the two brothers and sisters every day on the bed, calling them prodigal sons!
Although the second uncle was honest and honest, he was not stupid. He ran to the home of a rich man in the county under the pretext of going to the south to do business, and went to help him make furniture.

The county was far away from the town, so no one except his second wife knew that he hadn't gone to the south.

The second daughter-in-law took the three maids and stopped working. After being beaten up by the old man and the first wife, she took the three maids back to her natal family and lived in her parents' home.

The old lady asked someone to go to the second daughter-in-law's natal home to ask several times, but the second daughter-in-law just didn't go back.

And Ye Qingyu of the third room was paralyzed in bed, and Ye Qinghan's brother and sister went out early and returned late, and yelled every day that they lost money again, all of which exhausted the old couple physically and mentally.

Just when the Ye family was flying around, Ye Fengxian's holiday came, and he came back from Jingde Academy.

And what came back with him from the town was a bright red sedan chair. A group of people beat gongs, drums and suona, and came to Shanghe Village from the town. Ye Fengxian also rented a small donkey in a high-profile way. with a red flower.
