Chapter 428 Scholar
When the sky was bright, Yang Huaiping got up from the bed of Qianqian's house, he stretched his waist, put on his clothes and walked straight towards Qianqian's room.
As soon as he walked out of the room, Yang Huaiping saw Qianqian's mother cooking a pot of porridge, and he smiled at Qianqian's mother and knocked on Qianqian's door.
"Qianqian, the sun is almost on your buttocks, you get up quickly, I'll take you out to play!"
A very lazy voice came from the room, "You wait a minute, I'll get dressed and come out right away!"
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Qianqian to put on her clothes and draw a light makeup and walked out.
At this time, Qianqian's mother shouted: "I put all the food on the table for you, come and eat!"
Qianqian took Yang Huaiping's arm and said with a smile: "Let's go, go eat!"
Yang Huaiping frowned and followed Qianqian to the dinner table, and he saw three bowls of porridge, a plate of shredded radish pickles, a few tea eggs, and a few steamed buns on the table.
Just as Yang Huaiping was about to use chopsticks to eat, Qianqian's mother pulled the clothes on Yang Huaiping's arm, and she said in a very gentle tone: "Xiao Yang, you come out with me, I have something to tell you!"
Yang Huai's face stiffened slightly, he got up from his seat and followed Qianqian's mother to the courtyard gate.
At this time, Qianqian stood up and wanted to follow, but her mother said sternly: "Qianqian, I'll talk to Xiao Yang about some things alone, you just sit at the dinner table and eat first!"
Immediately, Qianqian's mother walked out of the door with Yang Huaiping, and she said seriously: "Xiao Yang, what do you think of my girl!"
Yang Huaiping couldn't help frowning, he was stunned for a long time and said, "It's okay, it's a very innocent and simple girl!"
Qianqian's mother looked at Yang Huaiping with a very serious expression on her face, "Xiao Yang, Qianqian, she is a hard-working child, her father has left since she was a child, and Qianqian has suffered a lot with me, so I don't want her to be hurt in any way, if you think you can take care of her for a lifetime, then you will be with her, if you feel that you can't, you better leave her early!"
Hearing this, Yang Huaiping fell into a long silence, and after a long while, he said in a dry tone: "Auntie, I know what you said, you can rest assured!"
Qianqian's mother smiled with relief, and she said in a brisk voice: "Let's go, go to eat, don't wait for the rice to be cold for a while, this porridge is delicious while it's hot!"
Yang Huaiping nodded to Qianqian's mother, and then he and Qianqian's mother went to the dinner table again.
Qianqian handed a peeled tea egg to Yang Huaiping, she stared at Yang Huaiping and said, "Brother Yang, what did my mother tell you!"
Yang Huaiping smiled slightly: "It's nothing, just let me take good care of you!"
Qianqian didn't speak again, and began to eat steamed buns with pickles, Yang Huaiping also picked up a bowl to drink, he sat at the dining table and ate this simple peasant meal, and couldn't help but feel a long-lost warmth and happiness.
After a while, everyone at the table finished eating, and after Yang Huaiping helped Qianqian and her mother brush the dishes, he took Qianqian out of the door of her house.
Yang Huaiping stared at Qianqian and said seriously: "You Qingshuitang Village don't have a true beloved!"
Qianqian held a wisp of green silk hanging down her cheeks, she pursed her lips and looked up at Yang Huaiping with a puzzled expression, "Brother Yang, what is the most sincere and beloved person?"
"It's a person who loves a person or a thing to the extreme!" Yang Huaiping explained.
Qianqian's brows furrowed and fell into a deep thought, and after a long while, she said excitedly: "Brother Yang, I remember, there is a person named Yan Tanhua in our Qingshuitang Village, that guy is simply a nerd, Yan Tanhua stays in his thatched hut all day and doesn't come out, he is dedicated to learning, Yan Tanhua is definitely the kind of sincere and loving person you said Brother Yang!"
Yang Huaiping showed a bright smile on his face, and he said loudly: "Let's go, let's go find him!"
Qianqian's lips pursed: "But I heard that he lives in the mountains, and the place where he lives is so far away from my home!"
Yang Huaiping bowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Come up quickly, I'll take you to his house!"
Qianqian's face was a little blushing and she lay on Yang Huaiping's back, and she reached out to hug Yang Huaiping's neck.
Under Qianqian's command, Yang Huaiping ran towards Yan Tanhua's thatched hut like a royal wind, and he ran very lightly and smoothly, like a peer.
……
It didn't take long for Yang Huaiping and Qianqian to come to Qingshuitang Village, with beautiful mountains and rivers, pleasant scenery, and quiet and distant mountains.
Qianqian stretched out her hand and pointed to a thatched hut at the foot of the mountain and said, "That's where Yan Tanhua lives, let's go over and have a look!"
Yang Huaiping put down the Qianqian on his back, and he muttered: "Then let's be quiet, don't disturb others!"
Immediately, the two of them tiptoed towards Yan Tanhua's thatched hut, and then a heartfelt exclamation came.
"If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time. Sure enough, it's wonderful, this week is really broad and profound!"
Yang Huaiping gently knocked on the wooden door of Yan Tanhua's house, and he said in a very affectionate tone: "Yang has heard that Brother Yan is only eight years old, and he is here to visit today, and I hope that Brother Yan will go out and see him!"
Yan Tanhua listened to Yang Huaiping's good conversation, he put down Zhou Yi in his hand and opened the door, Yan Tanhua said in a calm tone: "This brother and young lady are please!"
Yang Huaiping smiled at Yan Tanhua, and then pulled Qianqian away Yan Tanhua, the window was bright and clean, elegant and leisurely, he looked around, Yan Tanhua's house was displayed in many neatly arranged wooden shelves, and on these wooden shelves were placed spotless books.
Yan Tanhua said very elegantly: "This brother Tai wants to drink something, Maojian, Pu'er, or camellia!"
Yang Huaiping pursed his lips and said, "Then the camellia, this camellia sounds closer to nature!"
Yan Tanhua turned his head to Qianqian and said, "What about you, Miss?"
Qianqian pondered for a moment and said, "I drink Pu'er!"
Immediately, Yan Tanhua put a purple clay pot on the small red clay stove and started to warm the water, Yang Huaiping paced to the bookshelf in the room, he tried to ask, "Brother Yan, can I take a look at the books in your room?"
Yan Tanhua's action of making tea stalled, and he hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Look, but be careful, don't break the books for me, I cherish these books very much!"
"In this case, if a gentleman doesn't win people's love, then forget it, I won't read it!" Yang Huaiping didn't move the books on the shelf, but turned around and walked towards Yan Tanhua.
Yan Tanhua smiled at Yang Huaiping with a little apology on his face, and he said in a sincere tone: "It's not that I want to hide these books in the mountains, but I think that if people who don't know these books can read them at will, it is just a blasphemy against these books, I think these books also have souls and lives!"
The corners of Yang Huaiping's mouth raised slightly, outlining a trace of arc, he spread his hands and said: "I'm just curious about your book, I'm glad I didn't read your book, otherwise it would be really a blasphemy!"
Yan Tanhua carried the boiling purple clay pot to the table, he placed a teacup for one person, Yan Tanhua put two different tea leaves in the teacup in front of Yang Huaiping and Qianqian, and then poured tea for the two, he stretched out his hand and said, "Two please!"
Yang Huaiping picked up the teacup and took a sip, a slightly bitter but clear tea fragrance instantly diffused in his throat, and Yang Huaiping couldn't help but admire.
"The tea made by Brother Yan is really memorable!"
Yan Tanhua said with a flat face: "I don't know what Brother Tai and the girl next to him are called?"
Without waiting for Yang Huaiping to speak, Qianqian on the side hurriedly said: "His name is Yang Huaiping is my fiancé, and my name is Mu Qianqian is his fiancée!"
Yang Huaiping suddenly felt that his mind was full of black lines, and after he sighed, he picked up the teacup on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and began to drink to hide the embarrassment in his heart.
Yan Tanhua said calmly: "Brother Yang came from afar, I, Yan, should do my landlord's friendship, Brother Yang is waiting here, I, Yan, will take the lyre and play a song to cheer up Brother Yang!"
As he spoke, Yan Tanhua took down the lyre hanging on the wall in the hut, and he sat down at an agarwood table and played the lyre with a leisurely expression.
Suddenly, the melodious sound of the piano echoed in the thatched hut, and the aftermath lingered endlessly.
Yang Huaiping picked up the teacup on the table, and while tasting tea, he recalled the ethereal artistic conception in the sound of the piano.
After a while, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and Yan Tanhua said humbly: "It's ugly to sacrifice below!"
Yang Huaiping slowly put down the empty teacup in his hand, and he said with a distant gaze: "I thought of a story from this piano song by Brother Yan!"
Yan Tanhua smiled slightly and said, "Brother Yang, let's listen to it!"
Yang Huaiping said in a deep voice: "I thought of the story of Zhuangzi from the sound of Brother Yan's piano, saying that Zhuangzi's wife died, Zhuangzi not only did not cry, but sang and seemed very happy......!"
Yan Tanhua looked at Yang Huaiping with an inexplicable expression, and he asked, "Why did Brother Yang think of such a thing from the sound of my piano!"
"I just want to discuss a person's open-mindedness with Brother Yan!" Yang Huaiping said calmly.
Yan Tanhua stared at Yang Huaiping and said suspiciously, "Then what exactly does Brother Yang want to talk to me about?"
Yang Huaiping said with a sincere face: "I want to ask if Brother Yan can be as open-minded as Zhuangzi to life and death!"
After Yan Tanhua pondered for a long time, he muttered: "No, I'm just an ordinary reader, not a saint!"
Yang Huaiping asked again: "Then Brother Yan still has something that he can't give up!"
Yan Tanhua fell into a long silence, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice: "I don't know, I only know now that my mind is full of reading, seeking knowledge and exploring!"
Yang Huaiping had some thoughts faintly in his heart, and he arched his hand towards Yan Tanhua and said, "Brother Yan is not too early now, I will take Qianqian back first, and I will come to visit Brother Yan another day!"
