In the evening, a group of soldiers arrived at the Tao Mansion at Zizi Bridge in Changsha City. The leader, Goshha, said to the gatekeeper,""I'm so annoyed
Tell Young Master Tao that Lord Futai has an urgent letter for him.”
The gatekeeper didn't dare to be negligent and welcomed the visitor into the living room. After offering tea, he immediately sent the letter into the inner room and handed it to Tao Xi.
Tao Wei was the only son of Tao Shu, the former governor of the two rivers, and the son-in-law of Zuo Zongtang. He was originally from Xiaoyan, Anhua, and was currently living in Changsha.
Speaking of the matter of Tao and Zuo getting married, it was really a good story.
Tao Shu was successful in his youth and his fame was successful. At the age of twenty-five, he was a scholar. Later, he held important local positions and became the head of the two rivers in his later years.
Governor. During his term of office, he saved the Huai River, dredged the rivers and lakes, opened the first sea transportation, and reformed the salt policy. He was a famous official in the Daoguang era. he repeatedly
Incognito to visit the people and handle murder cases impartially. In his hometown in Hunan, the scholars worshipped Tao Shu very much. Compared to Tao Shu, Zuo Zongtang
The difference in status was too great. At the age of twenty-one, Zuo Zongtang passed the imperial examination and failed in the examination. The first report was over. The second time has been taken as the first
Fifteen, but because Hunan won one more place, his name was brushed off and added to Hubei's name, only taking him as a reputation record.
Zuo Zongtang disdained to be a mere scribe. He returned to the south and studied hard at home on history, geography, famine, salt, and other statecraft studies. said
In the 17th year of Guangwu, Zuo Zongtang lectured Liling Lujiang Academy. This year, Governor Tao Shu went to Jiangxi for a military parade and returned home.
The tomb passes through Liling. The county magistrate asked Zuo Zongtang to write a couplet for Tao Shu's residence. Zuo Zongtang's brush moved like a dragon and snake, and he instantly waved it: "Spring
Palace language calm, twenty years home mountain seal heart stone in; The river flows day and night, and the children of the eight states return home.”This couplet, both expressing hometown
The admiration and welcome that people had for Tao Shu brought out the most proud experience of Tao Shu's life: At the end of November of the fifteenth year of Daoguang,
Emperor Daoguang summoned Tao Shu fourteen times in the Palace of Heavenly Purity and personally wrote a plaque for the stone house where he had studied in his childhood. This, Tao.
Wang Shu thought it was an unprecedented honor. When Tao Shu saw this couplet, he was extremely impressed. He immediately invited Zuo Zongtang and praised him. left
Zong Tang admired Tao Shu. He had a belly full of ideas to help the people and hated that he had nowhere to pour them out. Seeing Tao Shu now, I can't wait to see everything
He poured it out. Therefore, half to consult, half to show, from knowledge to state affairs, from salt administration to shipping, he talked with Tao Shu.
At night. Tao Shu was very happy that his hometown had such extraordinary talent.
Tao Shu was fifty-nine years old that year, and Zuo Zongtang was only twenty-six. Tao Shu believed that Zuo Zongtang's future would surpass his own, but he didn't.
He was more than thirty years apart from him, but he made friends with him regardless of age.
In the second year, Zuo Zongtang failed his third examination. Tao Shu was seriously ill at that time, and he repeatedly invited him to Jiangning to do something important.
Entrustment. On his way back to the south, Zuo Zongtang took a detour to Jiangning. Tao Shu knew that he would not live for long, so he entrusted his only son, Tao Wei, to the left.
Zong Tang also took the initiative to propose marriage with her. Zuo Zongtang felt that he could not be compared to him in terms of status or seniority.
Tao family marriage, firmly refused. Tao Shu held Zuo Zongtang's hand and said,""Thirty years later, your position will definitely be above mine.
I've been an official for most of my life, but I've never seen anyone who surpasses you. Please don't refuse. After I die, Pin 'er will be like your own son
Son, if you can teach him to become a talent and not humiliate the Tao family, then I can rest in peace in the afterlife. Not only I entrust my son to you, my wife
No Min, I'll entrust my family affairs to you.”
Zuo Zongtang was extremely grateful for Tao Shu's confidant and said,"Don't worry. In that case, Zuo Zongtang should be the Young Master of the sect.
When you're a talent, you put in all your effort. I've already taken the exams three times and seen through the shortcomings of the examination hall. From now on, I won't go to the capital to take the exams or study.
His son, Liu Zhuang personally ploughed, as a farmer in Hunan Province for the rest of his life.”
Soon after, Tao Shu passed away. Zuo Zongtang brought Tao Gongzi to his hometown in Anhua and lived in Xiaoyan for eight years, teaching him everything he had learned.
With him. After that, he personally hosted Tao Meng's wedding. Tao Chi had always regarded Zuo Zongtang as his own father.
At this moment, Tao Xiong opened the letter and read it roughly. He was so shocked that he couldn't catch his breath.
The original letter said that Changsha had been in danger recently, and all the officials, gentlemen and people had contributed to the defense of Changsha. Tao Jiawei
There is a famous rich man in Hunan who has been favored by the state for generations. In this critical time, he should be an example for the officials and the people. Please prepare 100,000 yuan in five days.
Silver, to supply military supplies and so on.
The gatekeeper saw the young master sitting there in a daze and didn't make a sound, making the twelve feet Vajra feel confused. He stood at the side and reminded softly,"Young Master, outside."
I'm waiting for a reply!"
Tao Xiong seemed to have woken up and slowly said,"Tell them that I'm not at home and ask them to go back first.”
After the person left, Tao Tao immediately sent his family member Tao Gong to take Zhang Liangji's letter and ride a fast horse out of Xiang.
Spring Gate, run North.
Sixty miles east of Xiangyin City, there was a large stretch of winding mountains. The peaks were intertwined, and the valley was deep. Xiangyin people generally refer to this
The belt is the east mountain. Ever since the Taiping Army besieged Changsha, Xiangyin, which was only a hundred miles away from Changsha, had been in a state of panic. There are some properties in the city
People, one after another, moved their gold and silver relatives to Dongshan to escape.
At this time, Zuo Zongtang had also brought his entire family to live in seclusion in White Water Cave. Zuo Zongtang got married at the age of 21.
He was born in Xiangtan Yue's family. His wife, Zhou Yiduan, also known as Yunxin, had received a good family education since she was young. She was quite talented. She wrote poems and songs.
Second to Zongtang. The couple sang poems in their spare time and sometimes talked about history with each other. If Zuo Zongtang couldn't remember anything, Mrs. Zhou immediately took it out.
He took out the book collection and flipped to a certain letter or volume. There was an 80 - 90% chance that it was correct. Zuo Zongtang once spent a year drawing a map of the country by province.
The picture was painted by Mrs. Zhou. The taste of zither and lyre is quite similar to that of Yi 'an and his wife in ancient times.
Mrs. Zhou was weak and worried that her son would not have many children, so Zuo Zongtang married Zhang when he was twenty-five years old. Light 23
In 1949, Zuo Zongtang bought 70 mu of paddy field in Liuzhuang with dried meat for many years. The next year, the whole family moved from Xiangtan to Liuzhuang. Liu Zhuang Li Dong
Thirty miles up the mountain. Although Zuo Zongtang lived on Dongshan Mountain, he often went to Liuzhuang to take a look.
On this day, he had just returned from Liuzhuang. The villagers told him that Mr. Ouyang Zhaoxiong from Xiangtan had come to visit. Zuo Zongtang was overjoyed.
He hurried back to the White Water Cave.
"Brother Xiao Cen!" Zuo Zongtang shouted before he entered the door.
Ouyang Zhaoxiong and Zuo Zongtang were old friends for many years. They used to live in Xiangtan and were very close. Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhang were also very close.
She avoided him. At this time, he was sitting in the study and reading Zuo Zongtang's poems. When he heard the shouting outside, he quickly stood up and saw Zuo Zongtang.
Zong Tang strode into the house.
"A rare guest! A rare guest! I haven't seen you for more than a year." Zuo Zongtang patted Ouyang's shoulder as tall as a child.
Xing.
"You hid in this mountain and didn't even send me a letter. Where am I supposed to find you?”Ouyang tightly held Zong Tang's
Their hands seemed to have been separated for decades.
"Don't misunderstand. I've only been in the White Water Cave for a month. In the first half of the year, I went to Changsha and went to Shilixiang to look for you three times.
He didn't see her either. Ask your nephew, he can't be sure either. You are really a wanderer, your whereabouts are uncertain.”
"In the first half of the year, I went to Kuang Lu and bought you a basket of tea leaves from Fuliang. It was really good tea. No wonder Xiangshan elder
He wrote a poem, saying,'A merchant values profit over parting. Last month, he went to the bridge to buy tea.' Have a taste." Ouyang pointed at the table.
The small basket made of thin green bamboo strips.
"Give me tea leaves. The more the better. After brewing a cup of Fuliang tea and reading a few poems, I would truly be a hermit.”
Zuo Zongtang opened the bamboo basket and sniffed." Oh! Not bad."
"You're wrong. When reading Tao Gong's poem, you should pour a cup of White Crane Liquid.”Zhao Xiong said with a smile.
"Brother Xiao Cen, it seems that you are not very good at poetry. You only know that there is much wine in Tao Gong's poems. That is because Tao Gong often writes poems after drinking.
Therefore. This poem required wine. Yuan Haowen said it well: 'Bright moon high tower Yan market wine, plum blossom people day thatched cottage poem.'There is wine, there is poetry. to
As for reading poetry, he couldn't ask for wine, but tea. Don't you remember Lu Fangweng's famous saying: 'Wait for the fire to cook Guzhu tea, burn incense
Read the Xiechuan Collection? Let's brew tea and talk about poetry now!”Zuo Zongtang immediately asked Madam Zhang to make two cups of good tea.
Ouyang Zhaoxiong had always been ashamed of Zuo Zongtang's eloquence, so he followed Zuo Zongtang's words and said,"Ji Gao, just now
You weren't at home, so I read your 'Forty Self-Written Manuscript.' Why don't you print it?"
"Brother Xiao Cen, you value poetry too much. How about publishing it? Can it be passed down after being printed? Since ancient times, poetry
There were thousands of people who wrote well, but how many of the scholars after the Tang and Song Dynasties were famous? How many of those who pass on their names are truly
Is it because of his good poetry? The so-called people are passed down by literature, and literature is passed down by people. In fact, it is only literature that is passed down by people. Just like my ancestors
Father, father, and your father were all outstanding talents in their poems and essays. They also carved a few collections, but few people in later generations knew about them.
And? What was the difference between carving and not carving?”Zuo Zongtang seemed very excited when he said this. Superintendent Ouyang nodded repeatedly. Slightly pause
Zuo Zongtang said in a serious tone,""In the future, wait until I become a marquis before publishing!”
If this sentence was said by someone else, the speaker and the listener would treat it as a joke. Now, they did not laugh, as if
To Zuo Zongtang, it was only a matter of time before he was conferred the title of Marquis.
"Alright then! Let's not publish it for the time being! When it comes to poetry, I especially like "Eight Songs of Gui Ji Yan Tai Ji Gan" and "Twenty-nine-year-old Self".
The mood of worrying about the country and the people, the desolate and solemn style, was comparable to Old Du's Eight Songs of Autumn's Prosperity.
The depressed and puzzled atmosphere resonated with many scholars who had no talent.”
"When Cao Zhan wrote 'Story of the Stone,' he wrote the title 'Every word seems to be blood'. Actually, what did those things of his count for? my this
These words were truly the condensation of blood and tears. This self-drafted book was only compiled in the past two days. Yunxin was the first reader.
You are the second. I really want to hear you talk about it and see who is the true confidant in my poem, you or Yunxin.”
"A bosom friend in a poem naturally has to push sister-in-law and Furen.”Ouyang said as she flipped open the book." As I said just now, two
I like these eight songs the most, and there are also four songs that are very good. From the perspective of the whole article, these two poems are the best.”
Ouyang pointed at the first and fifth poems of the Eight Songs of Gui Yi Yan Tai Ji Jing and read them out.
The affairs of the world are long and leisurely. Who will use Confucianism to maintain peace and order?
If the country does not have harsh government, the poor will still rely on it, and if the people are hungry, it will be difficult to appease them.
The world's military reserves are laborious and wise, and the peace and prosperity of the country are concentrated in the management of various officials.
Green clothes do not understand how to talk about the current affairs, read poetry and books a sigh.
The war in the Western Regions lasted for many years. At that time, the country was established and the border was reopened.
Camels travel thousands of miles to transport rice to the government, and sand moraine is like a stone field for thousands of years.
The establishment of the provincial government is still troublesome to plan for other days, and the construction of the garrison is very expensive.
General, don't relieve your sad eyes. It's pitiful to live in the Central Plains.
"This is the true voice of the court," he praised,"but it's a pity that it doesn't reach the ears of the heavens! For example,'How can a scholar be conferred the title of Marquis?
To spread the heavens 'might and assist the peace.'He Rong has never been a schemer, because you wolves cannot be tamed.'
Mai…"
"You! To put it nicely, he was bold and knowledgeable.”Zuo Zongtang interrupted Ouyang.
There is a strategy to stabilize the country, and it is said that when the time comes, the grass will be ripe." The meat-eater can plan for himself, what use are we?”Zuo Zongtang started to feel indignant.
"The meat-eater is despicable and cannot plan far ahead. If they really had a plan to pacify us, why would I come to Dongshan to find you today?”
"East Mountain is a good place!" How can I get Xie Anshi of Dongshan to talk and laugh for you? Xiangyin and Dongshan also have Xie An
Shi, I hate that Huan Wen didn't invite you." Zuo Zongtang stood up angrily.
"I'm born with talent. Ji Gao, don't be too angry. I heard that the new Zhang Futai is a talent. I think he will be able to do it sooner or later.
I'll use yours."
"These lords are full of prestige when there's nothing to do, but when there's something to do, they're helpless. They're not people to work with. Hu Runzhi sent a letter saying,
I've already made a recommendation to Zhang Liangji, advising him not to die of old age in Liu Zhuang. I've already given up. In this life, I'll be an old farmer in Hunan. I am
Chunshang replied to He Zhongsu's letter. I'll read a few sentences to you.”Zuo Zongtang walked in the study with his hands behind his back and recited,
"'I am very busy in the east, and I spend my days with the servants. The seedlings have just grown, the water in the fields is green, the birds change their voices, the grass is new and the soil is moist, there is another period of music.
Meaning. How can we have several people of the same mind come to our Liuzhuang to talk?'As long as you come to my place often, drink wine, compose poems, and boil tea together
Wouldn't it be good to have a literary career?”
"It's good, but these benefits can only be given to others. Have you forgotten Brother Ling's expectations?‘The long things of green felt are presented to my son,
Yan's chin is sealed as Hou Wang Yu Ji. She heard that this was her auntie's wish.”
"If a real man doesn't become a marquis of ten thousand households, his life will be in vain. However, Zong Tang was born in this life and had bad luck!”
Ouyang knew Zuo Zongtang's ambition the best. He knew that he had accidentally touched the biggest regret in his heart just now, making him laugh and laugh.
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Coincidentally, Mrs. Zhou came over to pour some tea. Ouyang immediately smiled at Mrs. Zhou.
"Madam, let me tell you a story!"”
"Alright! It's rare that you're in high spirits. I've grown up in my boudoir, my ears and eyes closed. I'm just about to listen to you tell me some news stories to broaden my heart.
Chest." Madam Zhou was very happy and sat down beside Zong Tang.
"That year, a friend and I took a boat to the north and entered the capital to take the exam. The boat crossed Dongting Lake and stopped at a small ferry.
It was already late. That friend was writing a book on the couch. I asked him who he was writing to, and he said he was writing a letter to his wife. At this moment, the boatman called
He went ashore to play. The letter was placed on the table, unsealed in a hurry. I was young and curious to see what love letters were
How was it written? The first few sentences were about the things that happened after parting, no different from ordinary people. Only the middle part surprised me.”Ouyang stopped.
He saw that Zong Tang and Madam Zhou were listening attentively. One night, the boat stopped in a secluded place. to half
At night, suddenly more than ten pirates came into the cabin with open fire and weapons. They opened my tent with the tip of their swords. I shouted loudly and fought with them with my sword.
The pirates fought. The thieves could not support themselves, and they fled one after another and retreated outside the cabin. I shouted and chased after them. The thieves were so scared that they fell into the water.
He could swim, but he could only watch them escape.”
"Ji Gao, the friend Xiao Cen was talking about was you, right? I remember the letter you sent back from Dongting Lake in the 13th year of Daoguang.
It's about this matter. You were on the same boat as Xiao Cen that time.”
Zuo Zongtang looked at Mrs. Zhou and did not answer.
"Sister-in-law, this person is Ji Gao. I'm going to expose him today. He made up this heroic story, but it was all about
Fabricate. Ji Gao, you have to apologize to Yunxin today. You lied to her for twenty years.”Superintendent Ouyang laughed.
"I really believed it at the time. On one hand, she was worried for him, but on the other hand, she was proud of him. At that time, I thought, Ji Gao was really a
Hero. Only today did she know that it was fake.”Mrs. Zhou gave Zuo Zongtang an annoyed look.
Zuo Zongtang said leisurely,"You are really strange. You didn't dream with me at that time. How could you know what I did?"”
"Dream?" Trillion Bear asked in surprise," You said that everything you wrote in your letter was a dream?”
"Yes, it's true." Zuo Zongtang smiled slyly.
"You wrote the dream as if it was real. Can you deceive people like this in your boudoir?”Zhao Xiong could not understand Zuo Zong
Tang's method.
"Sigh! Xiao Cen, you're such a cute person.”Zuo Zongtang sighed and said seriously," I slept that night.
Before I woke up, I happened to read the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Guangwu Ji, and saw Fan Ye's account of the Battle of Kunyang. Wang Xun, Wang Yi, Chen Bing, surrounded Kunyang City.
There were dozens of layers, more than 100 camps, flags covered the fields, dust filled the sky, the sound of drums could be heard for hundreds of miles, and Guangwu led 3,000 death squads to finally break through.
Soon there were millions of people in the city. Coincides with the big thunder and lightning, the roof tiles are flying, the rain is pouring down, the river water rises sharply, drowning tens of thousands of people, the river water is like this.
It doesn't flow. Thinking about the countless battles since ancient times, which battle could compare to the Battle of Kunyang? Guangwu is really a hero. Such a spirit flies, my will is stirred,
That night, he dreamed that the water bandits had come. Since Guangwu is a man, he is not afraid of millions of tigers and wolves. I, Zuo Zongtang, am not afraid.
A clown! Instantly his courage increased, he waved his knife and fought with it, just like how Guangwu defeated the Mang army, killing the water thief ghost crying.
The wolf howled, leaving nothing behind. There was a sense of relief in his heart that he had never felt before. When I woke up, I looked at the boundless lake, and my mind began to think
When he woke up, he thought to himself,"Was there really such a thing at the Battle of Kunyang?" Could 3,000 soldiers really defeat a million? I'm afraid Emperor Guangwu is the same as me
He must be dreaming! He thought of the Battle of Fei River, the Battle of Chibi, the Battle of Changshao, the Battle of Chengpu and the Battle of Muye recorded in the history books.
It was probably all a dream! The predecessors said that it was a dream, and later generations believed it. Perhaps half of the 23 histories were about the Water Pirates on Zuo Zongtang's boat.
Story. " Brother Xiao Cen," Zong Tang patted Zhao Xiong's shoulder and smiled." Fan Ye can fabricate the Battle of Kunyang, and the predecessors can fabricate the second.
Thirteen histories, couldn't Zuo Zongtang make up a little hero story? You're making a fuss like this, just as the ancients said:
Fools can't talk about dreams."
Zhao Xiong originally wanted to tease Zong Tang, but now that he was teased by him, he felt a little disappointed. Then, he thought about Zong Tang's words.
It seemed that the words in the letter weren't just for a moment, but an opportunity to vent the emotions in his heart. Thinking of this, Zhao Xiong
She also smiled knowingly.
After drinking a mouthful of tea, Zhao Xiong said again,"Well, the past is over, let's not talk about it anymore. My poetry review is not over yet. There are still a few words about me."
He also liked: 'Silkworms should be cocoons after sleeping, magpies come around trees but don't rely on branches', which is intriguing;" Gambling history and playing chess are many fun things. When will Zhaoshan come?
Gongmao Temple, noble and pure…"
" Hahaha," Zuo Zongtang laughed heartily when he heard this." Brother Xiao Cen, you and Yunxin are heroes."
It's roughly the same. But forgive me for being blunt, but none of you can be considered my confidants in my poems. You can't even see the best poem.”
"Tell me, which one?"
"Read this one." Zuo Zongtang flipped through a few pages and pointed at " Urging Yang Ziqing to Draw Plum Blossoms."
When Zhao Xiong saw it, it was also a seven-law poem:
There are twelve plum trees in Liuzhuang, which are full of flowers after the wax festival and before the spring.
Amusement I rely on this cold, see your ink play can be strange again.
In the new house to store Qiongsu, will compete with the courtyard for beauty.
It snowed heavily on the Xiangjiang River and went back to sleep late. You Huai Ding Xu Shan's wife knew.
"Look, do I look like Lin Bu?”
Looking at Zuo Zongtang's smug look, Ouyang Zhaoxiong found it very interesting. He thought that he and Zuo Zongtang had been together for more than twenty years.
Nian, she didn't understand him completely. I always thought that he was Guan Zhong, Yue Yi, but I didn't know that he also had Tao Yuanming and Lin He.
Jing's mind. What a lovely person! " Yes," Zhao Xiong said." But there's one important thing that's different. He and Jing layman
It's plum wives and cranes, but you have a lot of wives and children.”After saying that, the two of them laughed happily.
After a while, Zhao Xiong suddenly remembered something and said,""Ji Gao, when I returned to Xiangtan from Daliang, I met him by accident in Yuezhou City.
He was meeting an old friend. Guess who?"
"Who is it? Could it be Wu Nanping?"
"No, it's not that. Wu Nanping was from Yuezhou, so it wasn't a surprise to meet him.”
"Guo Junxian? He went to Yuezhou."
"Not really."
Zuo Zongtang thought for a while but couldn't think of anything. He smiled and said,""Your friends are from all walks of life.
I can think of it!"
"Zeng Disheng." said Zhao Xiong softly.
"Cleansing! Why did you see him in Yuezhou City?”Zuo Zongtang was very surprised.
"He came back from a funeral. Auntie passed away."
"When did the old lady pass away? We didn't hear anything. Is he alright?"
"He's fine, but he's a little old. This time, he went to Jiangxi to take the provincial examination and received an obituary on the way. I've already received the emperor's favor
After the provincial examination, he returned to his mother's home in Xiangxiang. Who knew that I wouldn't be able to do so."
"Yeah! No matter how famous a person was, they couldn't get everything they wanted.”Zuo Zongtang sighed with emotion again." Disheng has also been considered as one of the most talented people in the world.
He's only a year older than me, but he's already been an assistant minister for four or five years. In terms of character and knowledge, there's nothing to say, but in terms of talent
Say, it's not that I look down on him and am afraid that he won't be ranked high.”
Ouyang Zhaoxiong knew that Zuo Zongtang and Zeng Guofan had an interesting period of mutual ridicule. It was the winter of the nineteenth year of Daoguang,
Zeng Guofan left Xiangxiang for Beijing and stayed in Changsha for a few days on the way. One day, Zuo Zongtang and Guo Songtao and his younger brother Guo Kuntao Jiang Zhong
Yuan and the others went to visit Zeng Guofan. Everyone was discussing national affairs in high spirits. Zuo Zongtang liked to express some unconventional views.
He was also the best at talking, eloquent and endless. Zeng Guofan was always outspoken, so he was a little unhappy. Come to the guests
When he left, Zeng Guofan smiled at Zuo Zongtang and said," Let me give you a sentence: Ji Zi claims to be high. He is not an official in the court, nor is he a hermit in the mountains.
Disagreements always arise."
The words "Zuo Jigao" were embedded in his words. Zuo Zongtang smiled and said,""I'll give you a sentence too: 'The vassal is the guard.
Country, advance can not fight, retreat can not defend, ask you what is the economy?”
It also happened to be embedded with the words "Zeng Guofan". Zeng Guofan marveled at Zuo Zongtang's quick thinking. The two of them smiled and said goodbye. Although it's a period
What a joke, but Zuo Zongtang's unwillingness to accept Zeng Guofan was well known to his friends. On this point, Ouyang Zhaoxiong and Zuo Zong
Tang agreed. After listening to Zuo Zongtang's sigh, he nodded and said,""It's good to wash away your official luck. If you want to talk about talent, don't save it.
Take the group of scholars in Hunan for example, there are at least eight or ten people like Di Sheng.”
The two were chatting when Madam Zhang came in and said that someone had come from the Tao Mansion in Changsha.
