Chapter 73 It's actually the second young master's
"Mother, I'm not the one who got the recommendation letter..."
"It's not you? Who else could it be if it wasn't you?" Mrs. Yun stood up and came to Wei Yichen's side.
Her eyes fell on the letter, but when she saw the three words "Wei Jinyi", her face turned pale.
"How could it be Jin Yi?" Yunshi was stunned and couldn't believe what her eyes saw.
Although this matter should be a matter of luck, who would have thought that the letter from Sibaozhai was sent to their principal's mansion, and the winner was actually the second young master who had never had any sense of presence in the mansion.
Yun didn't even know that Wei Jin had also gone out to buy Sibao Zhai's blind box.
Yunshi couldn't accept it for a while. One moment she thought her son was lucky enough to get a recommendation letter, but the next moment she told her she was wrong!
When the letter was delivered to Wei Mansion, she never thought about the second possibility!
Wei Yichen looked at the name on the letter and didn't know what to say for a moment. He felt uncomfortable when the cloud fell.
After a while, Wei Yichen, who was in a more relaxed mood, returned the letter to Yun, "Mother, please take this letter to your second brother." "
But Yichen..." Yun hesitated.
"Mom, what belongs to the second brother should be given to the second brother. I am also happy for the second brother." Wei Yichen said.
Yun's mood was complicated: "But this is the opportunity you have dreamed of." "
I know that I really want to get this letter of recommendation. Maybe with this letter, my long-standing wish to become a disciple of the Tibetan Buddhist monk can be fulfilled." It’s come true. But this opportunity doesn’t belong to me, so I can’t think about it any more.” Wei Yichen said.
"But Yichen, this is a matter of luck..." "
Even if it's luck, it can only prove that the second brother's luck is better than mine. His luck is his luck."
"But Yichen, this is just a letter of recommendation. If the recommended person does not have enough strength, then Zanglin layman may not accept this disciple. Compared with Jin Yi, who has never gone out to study, he has obtained many gentlemen. You who are recognized will have a better chance." Yunshi said.
Wei Yichen shook his head: "Although my second brother has never gone to school, he still likes to study. Since he also left his name in Sibaozhai, it proves that he also wants this opportunity. A gentleman does not take away what others like. , let alone my brother's."
"Mother, don't have any other thoughts, just send the letter to your second brother." Wei Yichen said firmly.
Looking at Wei Yichen's determined face, Yun had no choice but to suppress the thought that had just popped up in her heart.
"My mother knows. Don't worry, my mother will definitely think of another way for you." Yun assured her son firmly.
After talking to her eldest son, Yun gave the letter to Cuiping and asked her to send it to Wei Jinyi in Yingzhuyuan.
Then, he returned to the room alone and lay on the couch with a tired expression.
The mood fell and fell, rising and falling, making her feel exhausted.
In Yingzhu Garden, Xiaobei handed the letter just sent from Cuiping to Wei Jinyi, who was sitting in the octagonal pavilion writing.
After Wei Jinyi read the content of the letter, he said with a calm expression: "Ruoer really got it right." "Young
Master, could it be that the letter of recommendation that the eldest lady mentioned has been completed?" Xiaobei was surprised.
"Well."
"Master, what should we do? Do you really want to become a disciple?" "This is Ruo'er's wish, and it can also be regarded as an opportunity for me." Wei Jin also said.
"But young master, the Tibetan layman is over there in Huzhou Prefecture, far away from here." Xiaobei said worriedly.
"Maybe it's time for me to leave the Wei Mansion." Wei Jinyi murmured with a deep look.
###
Wei Ruo, who was listening to Songyuan at this time, received a letter from the carrier pigeon.
When he opened it, he saw it was the note of the Zanglin layman. This letter was sent by the Zanglin layman to Sibao Zhai, and then the wet nurse tied it to the carrier pigeon that they used to communicate.
It started with an unpleasant scolding, and Wei Ruo was already used to it.
In the letter, the Zanglin layman bitterly reprimanded Wei Ruo for his shameless behavior of catching one of his sheep to pluck the wool.
He used his works to attract customers at the opening of the business, used his works in "blind box" activities to promote sales, and in the end, he didn't forget to give him a "disciple", despicable! Shameless!
Wei Ruoxin thought, there was nothing she could do. She only knew this one knowledgeable person, and if she wanted to know a few more, she would change the list.
Although the first half was full of scolding, the second half changed the tone and said that if he chose someone with good character and good academic performance, he would still be able to accept it. He also told Wei that if he wanted to take good care of himself, he would return to Huzhou Prefecture if he had time. Look at him.
"A sharp mouth and a soft heart." Wei Ruo couldn't help but smile while looking at the words that cared about him.
The original name of Zanglin layman was Ruan Zheng. He had outstanding literary talent and high attainments in calligraphy and painting. He was highly appreciated by the emperor when he was an official in Beijing.
However, after serving as an official for decades, the first twenty years were just unknown. He finally reached the position of Hanlin, but because of his upright character, he often offended people.
Therefore, he resigned early and returned to his hometown, retired to the mountains and forests with his wife, and called himself a Tibetan Forest layman.
Wei Ruohui knew him because one time Mrs. Ruan suffered a stroke and was seriously ill. Ruan was going down the mountain to seek medical treatment and found Mojiazha. On the advice of the villagers in Mojiazha, he found Wei Ruo who lived in another hospital.
Wei Ruo treated Mrs. Ruan and saved her life. Ruan Zheng said that he had no money to pay for the medical expenses. Before Wei Ruo could say anything, he gave Wei Ruo a basket of calligraphy and paintings, saying it was payment.
Wei Ruo didn't know whether his calligraphy and painting were valuable at the time, so he accepted them.
So much so that there are now more than a dozen paintings and calligraphy works by Tibetan Buddhists placed in Wei Ruo's small warehouse.
Whenever you have the opportunity, take one out and engage in activities to increase the visibility of your store and increase sales.
Mrs. Ruan's stroke was caused by high blood pressure and required long-term medication, so later Wei Ruo went to the woods to see Mrs. Ruan every once in a while.
From time to time, we became familiar with the couple. Sometimes Wei Ruo would bring some delicious food or pens, ink, paper and inkstones to the old couple.
Ruan Zheng disliked the ugly words used by Wei Ruo in writing the prescription, and even shouted that if Wei Ruo were a man, he would definitely accept her as his apprentice.
As for the matter of accepting female disciples, Ruan Zheng, who was particularly rigid in some aspects, would never be able to do it.
Wei Ruo thought of him this time when he wanted to find a master for Wei Jinyi in an academy. He was knowledgeable and courageous, and he had many students and disciples when he was an imperial scholar in Beijing. Being his disciple would still be very helpful to his second brother in the future. helpful.
The reason for making it so complicated and using the name of Sibozhai to let the second brother become a disciple is also to avoid exposing himself too much and causing unnecessary trouble.
As for arranging Wei Jinyi's apprenticeship, hoping that Wei Jinyi will succeed is not just because she has a good relationship with Wei Jinyi now, Wei Ruo also has some selfish motives of his own.
She thought that if the small transparency in the original work was made opaque, would she have made a huge change in the entire plot in a sense?
