Chapter 16

After listening to Lu Weiwei's question, Li Chengdong happened to see Mrs. Li and Aunt Li entering a cloth shop next to him. He knew that once a woman's family went shopping and bought things, they couldn't finish things easily in a matter of hours.

Then he took Lu Weiwei to the side of the street and stood still, then smiled and said: "Master Shen's family has been passed down for five or six generations now, although it is not as beautiful as when Master Shen was still there, it is also a big family that can be counted in the entire Huining Mansion It’s just that there are no Shen family members who live in Qingxi now, and I heard that they have all moved to the county and the prefecture, so there are only a few people from the side branches left in Qingxi.”

"But I heard that Mr. Shen's family was very poor in the early years, and there were no famous people. It was not until Mr. Shen was selected by the master of the scholar, and then the master of the Juren, that he gradually started to make a fortune. Now not only the Shen family village Every family is very rich, and the children in the clan are all educated, and the officials and lords above will think of Qingxi first when they have good things. People in Qingxi Town, as long as their families can live well, love to send their children to study. That's why Even you, a little guy, can see that Qingxi is much better than your Zhuxi, and it's all thanks to Lord Shen!"

After listening to this, Lu Weiwei responded with a smile, "Didn't Mr. Shen rely entirely on himself, not only changing the fate of himself and his family and children, but also changing the fate of many people in Qingxi Town? It's really amazing!"

But I was thinking in my heart, as expected, that Mr. Shen is a noble son from a poor family. After all, he has been the chief assistant. After many years, Qingxi is still like this. Before he was in high school and could benefit his hometown, what was Qingxi? It's conceivable what it looks like, it's probably not as good as the current Zhuxi.

It is conceivable what kind of family Mr. Shen, who was born in Qingxi and grew up in Qingxi, would have had before he became prosperous.

But it is precisely because of this that he is more powerful and more remarkable.

It is needless to say how much hardship and hard work he has put in for a person from such a humble background to be the chief minister of a country, but what is more important is that knowledge can really change destiny, not only his own destiny, but countless The fate of man!

Lu Weiwei had an idea in her heart.

Sure enough, Mrs. Li and Aunt Li didn't show any signs of coming out of Buzhuang until Lu Weiwei and Li Chengdong's legs were almost numb.

Li Chengdong became impatient, stepped forward a few steps and raised his voice to the inside and said: "Is it still possible to go, is your sister-in-law going to buy the cloth shop for the boss?"

At last, Mrs. Li and Aunt Li were urged out, only Aunt Li was holding a scarf in her hand, but Mrs. Li’s hand was empty. Aunt Li complained as soon as she came out, "Father, why are you urging me? My sister just went in!"

Li Chengdong was speechless, "Just went in? At least half an hour, okay? After picking for so long, I still thought you wanted to buy as much as you wanted, but in the end I bought a scarf. If I were the boss, I wouldn't say driving you out I don't care about you anymore."

Aunt Li laughed angrily and said, "It's no wonder that our store's business is not as good as that of Yuan Ji and Cai Ji. I dare say that the boss is not rare to do small business. I don't know if there are many small businesses, and the profit is also considerable? What's more, you Guaranteed that out of the ten small guest officials, none of them will be the next big guest officer, it offended me, and I really went in and bought out the cloth shop for the boss, don’t cry, you won’t give me any money!"

Li Chengdong sneered, "I just said this casually, and it caused you such a big talk, I just don't say it... I'm not afraid that Xiaowei will get tired waiting, her legs will be numb, isn't it?" Xiaowei?"

Of course, Lu Weiwei couldn't dismantle her uncle's desk, and said with a smile: "My uncle and I are a little numb from standing. But it's rare for my aunt and mother to go shopping, so it's worthwhile to go shopping for a while, and you don't necessarily have to buy it. The process of shopping is comparable to real shopping. Much more interesting, isn't it?"

She is Master Lu Duan Shui Weiwei, of course she has to support her uncle and make her aunt and mother happy.

Sure enough, Aunt Li smiled instantly, "It's still Xiaowei who can talk, so Auntie will buy you candied haws, okay?"

Mrs. Li also laughed, "This child really feels like he has grown up all at once. Brother, if you feel tired, why don't you take Xiaowei back to the inn to have a rest, and my sister-in-law and I will go back for a while. "

Li Chengdong waved his hand and said: "I'd better go with you, so I can take care of you. Besides, I also promised to take Xiaowei to see the archways of Master Shen and Master Meng. You can go shopping for a while, and we will go after seeing it." It's almost time for lunch, and we'll go after lunch."

Mrs. Li didn't say any more, because seeing Aunt Li looked at the hairpin bead flowers on the small stall next to her, she also went up to them, "Sister-in-law, this is beautiful...the flowers are also beautiful, I bought it and took it back." Give it to Ah Yue."

"Ah Yue is still young, what kind of flowers should I wear? Don't waste my money, but this hairpin is quite suitable for my sister. I'll buy it for my sister..."

Lu Weiwei saw that they would not be able to finish the work for a while, so she took the opportunity to ask Li Chengdong, "Uncle, you just said that you want to take me to see Master Meng's archway, who is Master Meng? He is also as powerful as Master Shen , is it also from Qingxi?"

Then Qingxi Town is too blessed, right?
Li Chengdong said with a smile: "Yes, Master Meng is also from Qingxi. I heard that he and Master Shen were best friends back then, and later they married their sons and daughters. Like Master Shen, Master Meng also fell in love with Master Juren and Master Shen at a young age. Master Jinshi, he also stayed in the capital later. It is said that he became a second-rank official and his daughter became a princess. It’s just that he was not in good health, and he seemed to be in his early forties. They all said that otherwise, we might be able to point to our Tianquan It's a pity that there can be another chief assistant."

Second product?Princess?

Lu Weiwei was sure that she would not be surprised when she heard anything.

So later, when she finally saw Master Shen and Master Meng's Juren, Jinshi Memorial Archway, and other archways of different sizes around them, she could calmly ask Li Chengdong, "Uncle, how many important people have come out of this Qingxi Town?" ? There will be no one more powerful than Mr. Shen and Mr. Meng?"

Li Chengdong laughed, "How is it possible, Mr. Shen and Mr. Meng are already the most powerful. These memorial archways were erected by Mr. Shen's family after Mr. Shen's nephews and grandchildren and clansmen won the honor of Master Juren and Jinshi. Of course There are also memorial archways for his surnamed Juren. It’s a pity that Mr. Meng’s family is small, and it seems to have declined after only three generations, otherwise there must be a few more archways here.”

After a pause, he sighed: "There are so many archways, tsk tsk, people will definitely come to see them in a few decades or hundreds of years, and they will definitely be the same as I am now, full of envy and admiration. If you Cousin Achang can set up such a memorial archway for our family in the future, no, let alone the master Juren and Jinshi, if he can win a scholar, the grave of our Li family ancestors will smoke, and I will faint with joy. Then my grandsons and great-grandchildren will definitely be able to set up so many archways for our family in the future!"

Lu Weiwei didn't speak.

The thought in my heart was just a vague thought, but it became more and more clear.

Since knowledge can change the fate of that Master Shen and that Master Meng, and even not all of them, but at least the fate of most people, it can naturally change her and her relatives too!

 Weiwei definitely didn't think of taking the imperial examination as soon as she came here. It must be an opportunity and a reason o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
