38 Heart
For such a big thing as apprenticeship, there were no female dependents on the table, so Liu Qiao could only stay in the house by herself, watching her sister go out. Liu Yan promised a lot of delicious and fun food, and found Deng Ai and asked him to accompany Liu Yan out for a walk.
Deng Ai is very obedient, because of his stuttering, he is always silent. Liu Qiao was born a little magpie and loves to chirp when she has nothing to do. Along the way, the little girl bullied Deng Ai and became addicted, adding a lot of jokes to the big guy.
arranged two small ones, and Liu Yan followed Liu Feng to meet Sima Hui first with confidence and thanked him for his kindness. When Sima Hui saw Liu Yan, he was so happy that his eyes narrowed with a smile: "Okay, this one is so suitable for you." The old man seems to have seen Guang'er today. ”
Just as he was recalling, Sima Guang came in outside: "Father, Mr. Huang and Mr. Pang have arrived and are talking to Mr. Xu." "Oh, these two are positive, go, take you out to show your face, the surname Huang always said that he has a daughter who is unparalleled in the world, but he has never seen ...... brought out"
Liu Yan obediently followed behind Sima Hui, saying in her heart that this was regarded as a capital to show off? But she didn't know that the most famous thing about Jingzhou was not its prosperity, but its grand occasion full of celebrities.
Mr. Huang and Mr. Pang that Sima Guang said are the famous clans in Jingzhou, the parents of the Huang family and the Pang family, Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong. These two are the same generation as Sima Hui, and strictly speaking, they are Xu Shu's elder masters. Only Sima Hui's post can invite these two big shots.
When she arrived at the side hall, Liu Yan saw Xu Shu in the crowd at a glance, and a group of people were covered in clouds and mountains. As soon as Sima Hui led her to appear, she immediately attracted everyone's attention. Liu Yan obediently gave Xu Shu a salute first, and then Sima Hui recommended him to salute the people present one by one. In fact, she didn't know any of them.
I just heard Sima Hui say, who is this, it's your senior brother, who is this, seeing that your teacher is the same age, you want to call him uncle. Liu Yan wrote them down one by one. I only heard everyone sigh in surprise, saying, "It's really Miss Qianjin, it's a female baby, and I don't know what is peculiar, it is worthy of Mr. Shuijing's personal introduction." ”
Liu Yan listened to it in her ears and smiled in her heart. A sense of pride arises spontaneously, and although I am a man, the world knows that I am a daughter. It's good that you don't have to deliberately disguise it.
The introduction has been completed, and it is still early before the auspicious time, and everyone can't wait to know what is so strange about Liu Yan. Therefore, he coaxed Liu Yan to show her literacy. Liu Yan had no stage fright and calmly accepted everyone's school examination.
At this time, I must give the teacher a long face and Mr. Sima a long face. Let everyone know that the teacher has received the treasure. Fortunately, Liu Yan has been studying hard since she was reborn. The Analects and Mencius were completely difficult for her, and no matter who asked questions, she answered them fluently.
Gradually, the scene changed from noisy to quiet. The look of surprise on everyone's faces became stronger and stronger, but there were fewer problems. Huang Chengyan was not convinced, and suddenly said: "Now is a troubled time, although the way of Confucius and Mencius is a gentleman must learn, but the cultivation is only virtuous and talented, and he can only save his life, but he can't do anything big." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded their heads, and at the same time, they also felt that Huang Gong was harsh today. Those who are familiar with Huang Chengyan know that he has always been proud of the talent of his second daughter in the family.
As everyone knows, there are two big families in Xiangyang. The first is Liu Biao's Yue's family, Cai's. The parent is Cai Mao, who is Liu Biao's military advisor. The second is Kuai's. The parent Kuai Yue is also Liu Biaojun's teacher.
Liu Biao entered Jingzhou alone, and it was with the support of these two families that he was able to sit in the position of the lord of Jingzhou. And Huang Chengyan's wife is Cai's daughter. The eldest daughter is married to the son of the Kuai family.
Huang's high gate, so it is even more prominent. However, Huang Chengyan has a heart problem. It's his little daughter. This girl, like her sister, is very talented and proficient in the secret skills of the Mo family. However, he has yellow hair that is different from others, and his skin is not as fair as a Jiangnan woman, but slightly darker.
This may not be much in modern times, but in the Han Dynasty, it was a standard ugly girl. The bad thing is that the wind of the ugly girl of the Huang family is still blowing out, and everyone knows that Huang Chengyan has an ugly girl.
Therefore, Lao Huang has always only talked about his daughter's talents, and advertised everywhere that he wanted to find a son-in-law for his daughter who focused on connotation rather than appearance. Recently, for this matter, he has been grinding his tongue in front of Sima Hui.
Not for anything else, Sima Hui has many apprentices, and any one of them is a rising star. It is most suitable for a daughter to be a husband. However, her daughter looks too different, and no man is willing to marry her.
After receiving Sima Hui's invitation, he came in a hurry, wanting to take advantage of the big party to promote his daughter again. didn't take today's real heroine in his eyes at all, but he didn't know that everyone was coming for Liu Yan today.
was hyped by Sima Huiyi, and Liu Yan's sense of mystery added another layer. Therefore, Old Man Huang was not convinced and made provocative remarks. This is actually a bit out of grace. However, everyone knew about the things in his family, but they didn't bother with him, but looked at Liu Yan with interest, wanting to hear what she had to say.
Liu Yan's eyes lit up when she heard this, she looked at Huang Chengyan happily, and said in her heart, finally someone who asked practical questions. Those who are of the way of Confucius and Mencius, she read it, and memorized it. It's all about passing the time. What she really worked on was "Han Feizi"!
As soon as Huang Chengyan's voice fell, Liu Yan almost subconsciously picked up: "Mr. is right, and the disciple also thinks so." This sentence made everyone talk about it again. Huang Chengyan was even more contemptuous: "Little girl, do you know what troubled times are?"
"The disciple doesn't understand the troubled times. Liu Yan bowed and her eyes drifted to Xu Shu's body. Seeing that his brows were tightly locked, he seemed to be dissatisfied with Huang Chengyan's questioning. There was a look of worry in the eyes that looked at him. Liu Yan knew that if she didn't answer well at this time, the teacher would definitely stand up and play a round for herself.
Just glanced at it, and his heart was settled, and he continued to say: "But the root cause of my apprenticeship today is the chaos of the times. In the eyes of my disciples, my teacher is a person of high moral integrity and great talent.
But because of the troubled times, he can only hide here. This is the result of troubled times. However, this evil result gave the student an unprecedented opportunity to become his second disciple. In this way, I have to thank the troubled times.
The troubled times have changed the prospects for everyone to live and work in peace and contentment, but they have also created countless opportunities. It is really beneficial for people like me, who originally had no chance at all, to be able to stand here today and accept the examination of your seniors and uncles. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Yan suddenly turned around and made a long bow to her teacher Xu Shu, who was already sitting in the corner: "Thank you, teacher, for accepting me." Then he saluted Sima Hui: "Thank you, Mr. Shuijing, for your success." ”
