Chapter Seventy-Seven: Kong Yiji's Realm
These old people laugh and scold each other and dig holes with each other all day long. But hell, no one ever gets anxious about these jokes. The older you are, the more outstanding your cultivation becomes.
The eldest grandson tapped Li Chengqian's head vigorously, but didn't say anything. She knew that Li Chengqian deliberately kept his hand last night just to make her smile, which was filial piety.
After getting up and wiping his sweat, Li Chengqian bowed down and said, "Uncle, uncle, queen mother, the child has already made an appointment with Master Li, so I can't sit for a long time, I have to go to the appointment." ”
Gao Shilian waved his hand: "Go, go, by the way, bring the gift prepared by the old man." It took a lot of effort for the old man to send this New Year's gift, so that he couldn't send it before the year. ”
Li Chengqian nodded, and then walked out of the Gao Mansion with an embarrassed face.
From his uncle's words, he heard one thing, it turned out that the New Year's gift was to be given before the New Year! Thinking about it this way, giving gifts after the New Year is not the same as giving out red envelopes, which is particularly inappropriate!
Seeing the prince leaving, the commander of the forbidden army guarding Gaofu divided a large group of men and horses and followed the prince's car.
Li Gang lived farther away, because his grandson did not have an official position, and the family only lived in Andefang, which was far away from the imperial city, and they all went to the edge of Chang'an City.
Seeing that the guards had the posture of kicking through the door of the mansion and carefully searching the inside and outside, Li Chengqian hurriedly lifted the curtain and said to the commander next to the car: "Don't go in all, you just need to fence the outside, pick a few people, and go in with the solitary ones." ”
The commander commanded and stepped forward to repel the few who were about to break in.
When I got out of the carriage, I saw Li Anren.
Li Anren had obviously been waiting at the door, and when he saw Li Chengqian coming out, he immediately stepped forward and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a healthy New Year, you can go to the Humble House, it just makes this place flourishing!" ”
couldn't stand such numb words, Li Chengqian gave up his hand, and didn't even bend his waist: "Mr. Anren is healthy in the New Year, the package in the carriage is a New Year's gift from Xu Guogong to Li Shi, so let's take it off quickly." ”
Li Anren nodded, and took the family to the car to get the gift.
After taking the things, Li Anren led the way and led Li Chengqian into the house.
The old gentleman has been honest all his life, and Li Anren's work does not make much money, so the decoration of the Li Mansion is no different from that of ordinary civilian homes. In the courtyard, there is even a fence for a flock of chickens and ducks.
Walking through the corridor and entering the middle hall, in the cold and swishing room, Li Chengqian saw Li Gang.
At this time, Li Gang was sitting on a wooden chair, sipping steaming tea, and next to the wooden chair was a black charcoal basin.
It's the only thing that keeps warm.
Seeing Li Chengqian, Li Gang laughed: "What's the matter, have you been to the house of the old thief?" Did you win? ”
Li Chengqian did not answer, but first paid a big salute to the old gentleman. With the old gentleman's 80-year-old life, he will make a big gift no matter what.
After greeting the New Year, Li Chengqian replied: "Naturally, I won." ”
stood up, sat down next to the old gentleman, and at the signal of Li Chengqian, several guards who entered the mansion walked out and closed the door.
Taking the tea handed by the old gentleman, Li Chengqian smiled bitterly: "Why is it so cold in your house, you are old, how warm can this charcoal basin be?" ”
Now it is winter, when I was in the East Palace, the Inner Mansion transferred a large amount of coal firewood to the East Palace for the sake of the old man. As long as the fire is raised, the heat passes through those large pillars, although it is not as good as heating, but it is still a charcoal pot and a coal stove or something.
But what about here? Just this one charcoal basin, how can it be good if it is frozen?
Li Gang said indifferently: "What is this cold, ordinary people don't even have such a charcoal basin at home!" Didn't you survive the winter? Don't talk about this, tell the old man what the old thief's expression is? Are you angry? ”
Thinking about his uncle's reaction and the old gentleman's cunning appearance now, Li Chengqian couldn't cry or laugh.
These are two elderly people, they are simply two children.
"Uncle didn't get angry, he said that he would definitely find an opportunity to call the door in a few days and directly ask you to save face."
Li Gang laughed, Gao Shilian's reaction, he also guessed.
Lifting the burden and looking at it, Li Gang nodded with satisfaction.
The so-called New Year's Rites are actually a few ancient books, which are the kind that are rare to see outside.
After looking through it a few times, Li Gang handed over the burden to his grandson and asked him to put it away.
Taking out Li Chengqian's New Year's gift, Li Gang said with a smile: "I thought what kind of New Year's gift your kid prepared for the old man, it turned out to be this, good, good, such a New Year's gift, the more the old man, the better!" Judging from the words and sentences of "The Tang Dynasty Boy Said", you also have a deep cultivation in poetry. If it weren't for the fact that he had seen you revise it several times, the old man would really doubt that you wrote it. ”
After speaking, Li Gang opened the paper, handed it to Li Anren and said, "Look at what the prince wrote, Anren, you have studied hard for half your life, you can write such a sentence?" ”
Li Anren took the paper and read: "The red sun is rising, and its way is bright; The river flows out of the subterranean flow, and the ocean is poured out; The hidden dragon soars into the abyss, and the scales and claws are flying; The milk tiger roars in the valley, and the beasts are terrified; The eagle falcon tries its wings, and the wind and dust are sucked up; Strange flower firstborn. Emperor Huanghuang; Cadres and women have their own work; The sky wears its blue, and the earth wears its yellow; Throughout the ages, there are eight wildernesses; The future is like the sea, and the future is long. It's beautiful, my young Tang Dynasty, and the sky is not old; I am a young man in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no boundary with the country! ”
After reading it, Li Anren didn't notice Li Chengqian's ashamed appearance at all, and said in shock: "This, this, this...."
Li Gang took the paper, and it was not strange that Li Anren was shocked.
Even he couldn't write such words. This has nothing to do with knowledge, he is already in his twilight years at this time, and even if he feels it for a while, he can't have such a strong ambition. This young man said that only a young man who is at the peak of his spirit and spirit can write it!
"What is this, Anren, the old man has warned you more than once not to read dead books, and not to read dead books, you see..."
Turning his head and not looking at the old gentleman teaching his grandson, Li Chengqian was extremely ashamed at this time.
This is the result of plagiarism and thin-skinnedness.
Intercepting and changing Liang Qichao's "Juvenile China Says" into "The Tang Dynasty Juvenile Sayings" is the only New Year's gift he can think of for the old man.
For this reason, he began to modify it a month ago.
In the end, it can't reach the realm of Kong Yiji, you can't take other people's achievements as your own, you can't say it seriously, can you call it stealing? Can the things of the reader be called plagiarism?
Li Gang saw Li Chengqian's blushing appearance, and didn't think he was ashamed, but thought he was a little shy.
Pulling his hand, the old gentleman said: "What are you shy, you can write such a sentence, the old man is very proud." When the New Year passes, the old man will find someone to frame it, and then ask someone to publish it everywhere, such an article should not be bundled in the East Palace, how can it be spread all over the world! ”
