Chapter 48: Reconciliation
Lan Sheng and I haven't been friends for long, so wouldn't it disgust him to rashly tell him that I'm a woman?
After thinking for a while, I replied, "I am the third disciple of Master. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Neither deceive nor speak.
Lan Sheng smiled and said, "I heard that there is a female disciple under Mr. Bai, I don't know if this is true?" ”
I smiled calmly, threw the question to him, and said, "I wonder what Brother Lan thinks about such a thing?" "I'm still not sure what Lan Sheng means to me, and I don't know what he thinks about it.
Lan Sheng paused for a while, and Fang smiled and said, "The market is chatting, Lan Sheng doesn't dare to make a judgment. ”
It turned out that he thought I was asking about the truth of the matter, but this is not what I wanted to know.
So I said, "As the ancients said, 'A woman without talent is virtuous.'" The world has always believed that women should pay attention to the importance of the boudoir, and did not encourage women to study poetry and books. If a woman is constantly out and about, even among men, it is absolutely unacceptable......"
Lan Sheng raised a hand, made a gesture of stopping, and said, "Huh, it's narrow-minded for Brother Xian to say this." ”
I raised my eyebrows, feigned curiosity, and asked, "Oh? How is this narrow-minded? ”
Lan Sheng said: "I think Brother Xian's words are biased. It is naturally not good for a woman to show her face when she is out often, but there is no difference between men and women in poetry and books, and this kind of benefit should be promoted. ”
I thought to myself, after all, Lan Sheng is from the Southern Song Dynasty, and there will still be some conservative thoughts. But it's good to think about it that way.
But there is still a little worry and disappointment in my heart. I asked him again, "Then what does Brother Lan think it means to 'show up'?" ”
He was silent and said, "In my opinion, 'showing your head' is an act of deliberately trying to attract the attention of others, and only people with a loose style will do it. If it's a normal interaction or exchange, it's actually nothing. ”
One of my hearts settled a little more, and I chimed in, "Well, I see it that way, too. ”
Before we knew it, we turned to the courtyard of Chen Zhangshi.
Lan Sheng said: "After chatting for so long, I won't delay my brother to do something, and I'll see you later." With that, he raised his hand and gave a salute.
I had no choice but to give up and say goodbye to him.
When he entered the courtyard, he saw a room with candles lit. I went up and knocked on the door, and a voice in the room said, "Wait a minute, here you are." ”
After a while, Chen Zhangshi opened the door, and when he saw me standing outside the door, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Come in and sit." ”
When I entered the room, I did not sit down, but bent my waist and bowed, and said solemnly, "Master." "I heard from the people of the academy that Chen Zhangshi was also the master of the academy in the past, so the students of the academy called him "master". Since I came to the academy, I naturally wanted to follow it.
Chen did not talk.
I bowed my head and continued, "Yesterday the students made a big mistake and brought shame to the entire college. After a pause, he added, "Because the student was infected with the wind and cold, and the fever did not go away during the day, he could not come over in time to ask the master for his guilt." I also hope that the master will forgive the students. ”
Chen Zhangshi said: "Presumably Mr. Bai has already taught you, I won't say much here." Zhao Gongzi has also been here today, and I also know that it is not your fault in this matter. Since you are willing to plead guilty, it means that you also recognize your own wrongdoing. I'm here to say one more thing, think twice before you act. ”
I was a little surprised, and thought, how could Zhao Yuan come over to take the blame? He didn't mention it to me.
While he was in doubt, Chen Zhangshi said: "Since you have already pleaded guilty, I will forgive you." Now you can go back. ”
I bent my back a little lower and said, "Thank you, Master, for your magnanimity. The student quits. ”
went out of the room, but his heart was worried about Zhao Yuan's affairs. Now that I think about it, what I said was really excessive, so I made him so angry. But no matter how guilty you are, you can only wait to see him and apologize to him again.
--------------------
On the second day, I went to Zhao Yuan's room early. The door was closed, and I wondered if he was inside.
I knocked on the door a few times, and there was a noise inside. It seemed that he should be inside, and I silently recited the words of apology again in my heart.
After a while, the door opened a crack, revealing Zhao Yuan's entire head and half of his disheveled body.
I was stunned for a moment, and just about to apologize to him, he blinked his sleepy eyes and said, "Who?" ”
I laughed and said, "It's me, Zhu Wan, I'll come...... Apologies to you. ”
His sleepy eyes finally opened, looked at me for a long time, and said, "What are you sorry for?" Then call me up. ”
I glanced at the sky and said, "I'm afraid it's not too early." He added, "Yesterday afternoon, I really shouldn't have said anything like that to you, so please don't worry about going up." ”
He scratched his head impatiently and said, "What words? I forgot about it all. Had some alcohol last night and don't remember anything. ”
Zhao Yuan has always been straightforward, since he said "forgot", I think he shouldn't take this matter to heart. He said he drank last night, and that's why I haven't been able to find him.
I said, "Where did you go for a drink last night?" I've been looking for you all night, and I haven't seen you. ”
"The tavern outside." He stretched, looked at me, and said, "How's it going?" Would I like to take you next time? ”
"Hahaha......" I laughed, "I'll make an appointment when I'm free." ”
Although I envy such a thing as drinking, it's a pity that I don't drink well. Besides, drinking alcohol will inevitably give birth to a lot of right and wrong, so it's better to push it if you can.
He gave me a blank look and said, "You're really unhappy and boring." ”
I laughed silently on the sidelines.
At this moment, the voice of the master came from behind him. I hurriedly turned my head to answer, and glanced at Zhao Yuan again, he had already closed the door.
I ran to Master and saw that Master was holding a letter in his hand, so I asked, "Master, has my father sent me another letter?" ”
"No," the master shook his head, "this is for Shi's friends in Tanzhou." He invited me to a small party at the house. ”
I opened my eyes and couldn't understand what Master was trying to say.
The master said, "Ah Zhu, let's leave today to visit him at his house, okay?" ”
I thought about it for a moment and said, "But aren't you going to start lecturing tomorrow?" ”
"It's okay," Master said, "Tomorrow is Mr. Chen's lecture, and I'll have a few days to come." ”
"Oh, that's good." I replied in a low voice. Actually, I don't really want to leave the academy, because Lan Sheng is here, and I want to seize the opportunity to cultivate a good relationship with him. But since Master asked me to accompany him, naturally I couldn't shirk it.
I asked Master, "Master, are we going to walk?" ”
The two donkeys that had been with us for half a month were no longer there. A few days ago, Master said that we wouldn't have to ride donkeys when we went back, so I asked someone to sell them. The money from the sale added a pair of shoes for each of Master.
The master nodded and said, "Let's go, it's not too far." ”
