Chapter 100 I hope that we will live forever and share the beauty of the moon thousands of miles apart! (Thanks to [Fu Sheng 662810] for the great award)

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the sky for wine..."

"I wonder what year it is today in the palace in the sky..."

"...I wonder what year it is today in the palace in the sky..."

Among the brothels in Bianjing, there are clear and beautiful songs floating in the air. What is being sung is Zhang Heng's "Shui Tiao Song Tou" composed the day before yesterday. The singing is melodious and the lyrics are beautiful, attracting passers-by to stop and listen.

"Whose poem is this? Why is there such a fairy spirit floating around? Is this a Mid-Autumn Festival poem? I haven't heard of it before?"

Pedestrians asked each other, and some people simply went into the brothel, intending to consult the young ladies in the brothel.

Don't get me wrong, they didn't mean anything else, they just wanted to ask what the word was.

As for discussing poetry with the ladies later, it was just in passing, and it did not mean that this was their original intention.

As a result, the brothel business was booming that night.

According to a senior brothel turtle who did not want to be named.

Every time Zhang Twenty-four writes a poem, the brothel's business will receive a wave of good news.

It can be said that Zhang Twenty-four is the bellwether of the brothel business.

Once there are new poems from Chapter 24, the girls in the brothel will definitely try their best to get the poems, and then immediately rehearse and perform.

If you can't catch up, you will fall behind immediately.

Therefore, once a scholar goes to a brothel to discuss the true meaning of life, he will most likely be asked if there are any new words in Chapter 24 during his blissful moments, which may be very disappointing.

There is also a scholar with a very flexible mind who claims to be a good friend of Zhang Twenty-four. Not only does he know clearly whether Zhang Twenty-four has new works, but he may also be able to bring out Zhang Twenty-four's new works in advance.

As a result, the scholar was highly praised by the young ladies and even slept with several young ladies for free.

However, no new words have appeared for a long time, which inevitably arouses suspicion.

Someone then went to check and found out that it was just a classmate who had snatched the Taixue steamed buns from Zhang Twenty-four.

You wouldn't dare to hit someone, but the reputation of a scholar has spread throughout the brothels, and you may not be able to enter them again for the rest of your life.

The scholar cried bitterly and felt that this life had completely lost its meaning and it was better to die...

Then this gentleman was discovered secretly sneaking into an alley to discuss life with the young ladies whose doors were ajar.

People can't help but sigh, how tenacious the power of life is, and they will find a way out.

These Zhang Heng brothers didn't know it, so they stayed in the Zeng Mansion.

Needless to say, Zeng Gongliang likes to make money because he is also good at enjoying it.

The food and drinks in Zeng's mansion were very exquisite, and the living and traveling were first-class luxury. It can be seen that Zeng Gongliang was not a miser, but a man who understood life.

Zhang Jun once believed that Taixue steamed buns were the best delicacies in the world, but after eating Zeng's food, he felt that Taixue steamed buns were his youth and an image used to remember his youth in the future. However, Zeng's food was

That is the necessity of life.

Therefore, Zhang Xun had a dream—the Zhang Mansion should be like this in the future!

Zhang Jun told his younger brother Zhang Heng about this dream, and Zhang Heng couldn't help but laugh. This is the saying that those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black.

Thinking about Zhang Jun before, he was still a stingy man who wanted to break away a penny and spend it as three pennies. However, after only staying in Zeng Mansion for such a short time, his thoughts changed drastically. He really changed from simplicity to luxury.

It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

When Zhang Shu appeared in front of them, Zhang Jun and Zhang Heng were surprised and said: "Second brother, are you back?"

Zhang Shu had a look of dissatisfaction on his face: "I was arrested, and you just enjoy the good food and drink at the teacher's place without caring about my safety at all?"

Zhang Heng came closer to Zhang Shu and smelled it.

Zhang Shu pushed Zhang Heng away with a guilty conscience: "What are you doing? I'm asking you!"

Zhang Heng and Zhang Quhui reported: "Brother, the second brother only smells of wine and meat, not rouge, so he was probably just treated to a delicious meal, and he hasn't lost his virginity yet. Well... he will be back at this time. …”

Zhang Heng pointed to Zhangshu and came to a conclusion: "Brother, our second brother is despised!"

Zhang Shu became anxious all of a sudden: "Why are you being disliked? Don't talk nonsense! I, Zhang Juzhong, is a talented person. Who is blind enough to dislike me? I have told you that your second brother and I will definitely get married." Got it!"

Zhang Jun and Zhang Heng looked at each other.

Zhang Heng said: "Second brother, tell me, who is the other party?"

Zhang Shu then told Zou Yaozhang's family situation, and Zhang Jun frowned: "Is he a merchant?"

Zhang Shu asked anxiously: "What's wrong with the merchant? As long as the people are nice, it'll be fine?"

Zhang Heng smiled and said, "Have you seen anyone before my second brother?"

Zhang Shu snorted and said, "I have met both Zou Yaozhang and Mrs. Zou. They are both reasonable people. It can be seen that their daughter is not much different, right?"

Zhang Jun scolded: "Are you trying to get someone's family? Are you trying to get someone's money? You're despicable!"

Zhang Shu snorted and said, "I have to look the same, right? It's better than coveting other people's bodies, right?"

Zhang Heng held up his palms and said with a smile: "Second brother knows how to live."

Zhang Jun glared at Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng said with a smile: "Second brother said that Zou Yaozhang and Mrs. Zou are good people, and they both said that their daughter is Xiao Mu. I think this daughter is not much different.

The second brother and the eldest brother have also reached the age of marrying wives. When they reach the right age, it is indeed time to put it on the agenda.

And it’s not a bad thing for the eldest brother and the second brother to find someone whose family is rich. From now on, the second brother will have a stable life, right?"

Zhang Jun thought for a while after hearing this. It seems that this is the truth?

He considered his words: "Then... give it a try?"

Zhang Heng nodded and said: "Well, we have settled on this, but we still need to ask the teacher's opinion. Our brothers and parents have passed away, so it is reasonable to ask the teacher to help us host it."

Zhang Jun held his hands and smiled and said: "Yes, let the teacher make the decision."

So the three brothers went to Zeng Gongliang's study. After listening to Zhang Shu's description, Zeng Gongliang asked a few more questions and nodded: "I know the Zou family. It is indeed a wealthy family. I can marry him." Being an only daughter is indeed a good thing, and I have no objection to this matter."

Zhang Heng said with a smile: "Teacher, the parents of the three of us brothers died young, so you, the teacher, have to make the final decision on our marriage."

Zeng Gongliang smiled and said: "It should be so. Let's do this. Master, let your wife handle this matter. If there is a need for Master to come forward, Master will naturally go there. Ju'an, you have to work more."

Zhang Jun nodded quickly and said, "Teacher, I can do it."

The matter was thus settled.

The next day was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Zhang Jun took his two younger brothers to visit Zhang Mansion, which was Zhang Dexiang's home.

But the bustling scene in front of them made the three brothers think they were in a busy city.

The three brothers were immediately dumbfounded.

There were so many cars and horses parked at the door that it was hard to hear, and the door was extremely busy. Zhang Jun went up and said, "I have three brothers who are here to see Uncle Zhang. Please tell me."

The man looked up in his busy schedule and asked, "Which family are you from?"

Zhang Jun said quickly: "We are the nephews of the Zhang family in Pucheng..."

Menzi hummed and then interrupted: "Just leave the gift and name card. We will register them and look at them when your husband has time."

Zhang Jun was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Heng, who nodded.

The three brothers put down the gifts and name cards without even having time to look at them.

Zhang Jun whispered: "Just leave like this?"

Zhang Heng nodded and said: "That's it, we'll talk about it when we get back."

So the three brothers took a small donkey cart back. On the way, Zhang Jun looked back at the Zhang family and sighed: "What the third brother said before is right. The Zhang family is directly related to us, so they will not be related to us."

Take it seriously."

Zhang Heng smiled and said, "That's pretty good."

The three brothers were silent, but felt relieved in their hearts.

After returning home, Zhang Jun said with a smile: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival happily."

Brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shu looked at each other and both became excited.

Zhang Shu smiled and said: "I am about to have a good Mid-Autumn Festival!"

The house has been cleaned, so there is no need to clean it again. The main thing is to prepare sacrifices to worship my parents.

The sacrifices are all prepared beforehand. The chicken, duck and goose meat are braised, the fruits are placed directly on the plate, and then several plates of vegetables are prepared and placed on the table.

Later, candles were lit, incense was burned, and prayers were made. Zhang Jun muttered for most of an hour before he finished speaking.

After waiting for another hour, he started to burn the paper money. When the paper money was burned out, Zhang Jin went to the yard and lit a firecracker, which was considered as the worship was completed.

Then the three brothers collected the sacrifices, chopped the chickens, ducks and geese into pieces, fried them in a pan, heated the vegetables, and fried the rice. It was a very sumptuous dinner.

The three brothers sat down at the table, with their parents' tablets not far away, as if they were all eating together as a family.

Night fell quietly outside, firecrackers sounded one after another, lights gradually lit up in the night sky, and children's screams of joy never stopped.

Zhang Jun listened for a while and said with a smile: "Eat, well, there is still some wine that Fan Lou sent last time, let's scoop some up and drink it. The weather is getting a little cold, so it's good to warm up your body.
