Chapter 31: Homework

The more he listened, the more Chu Zhen felt the insignificance of his knowledge, and the feeling of looking up to the mountains became stronger and stronger, but vaguely, Chu Zhen also heard that most of the content of the conversation between the two was discussed around the Book of Changes, and "Hetu" and "Luo Shu" seemed to have been mentioned several times, and the sun, moon and stars, and the gossip of King Wen also appeared repeatedly.

And Chu Zhen also noticed a detail, although it was a conversation between the two, but when talking about the content of the Book of Changes, it was always Mr. Shao who was saying, He Shi showed the appearance of being taught, and there was no intention of arguing, from this point of view, in He She's heart, Mr. Shao was the authority on Yi Xue, and his words could not be questioned.

"Yaofu, I heard that you intend to live in Luoyang and write books and words, but I don't know if there is such a thing." Resolving a scholarly controversy, in order to ease the atmosphere, He Shi asked with a smile.

"Luoyang has beautiful landscapes, I admire it deeply, and I do have this plan, but unfortunately Luoyang is a noble place, and it is not easy to live." Shao Yong smiled lightly, and there was a hint of helplessness between his eyebrows.

"If you really have this heart, how can we old friends stand by and watch." He Shi Zhengrong said.

"Jichuan, the two of us are only chatting, but we put the guests aside, this is not hospitality." It seemed that he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, Shao Yong glanced at Chu Zhen, who was still sitting upright, and said with a smile.

"It is a great privilege for students to be able to listen to the teachings of the two elders." Seeing that the words were on him, Chu Zhen hurriedly said, this is sincere, people often say, listen to your words, better than reading ten years of books, this is very reasonable, although I listened to it for a long time just now, I didn't understand much, but Chu Zhen insisted on writing down what the two said, and after going back, a pair of books, carefully understood, and naturally it will suddenly be understood, this is much better than reading a book, listening to other people's decades of experience, it is much easier than pondering by yourself.

"Chu Qian, how much did you understand what Mr. Shao said just now?" Seeing that Chu Zhen had been sitting for a long time, but he had no intention of being arrogant or impatient, He Shi was secretly satisfied in his heart, and asked quietly with a face on his face.

"Nine times out of ten." Chu Zhen paused in tone and said honestly: "I don't understand." ”

First of all, Chu Zhen had a look of affirmation, which made He Shi and Shao Yong feel shocked, and after listening to the second half of the sentence, they were immediately relieved, but a junior was shocked, and the two of them were very unhappy.

"Chu family Xiaolang, He Shanchang's affection is not so easy to give, but I don't know how you want to move him." Brushing the long beard flowing on his chest, Shao Yong asked with a smile.

"Students are not talented, only full of enthusiasm." Chu Zhen replied calmly.

"It's not just enthusiasm, but you don't know what the value of what is behind you? I actually have to carry a personal collection at all times. The color of appreciation flashed, and a strange smile bloomed at the corner of Shao Yong's mouth, and his eyes aimed at Chu Zhen's back, as if he was deliberately embarrassed.

Touching the backpack behind him, he forgot to hand over the gift to the housekeeper just now, it was really careless, seeing He She's stern gaze, Chu Zhen couldn't help but regret it a little in his heart.

"Chu Qian, if you visit the old man in the future, you don't have to bring vulgar things." There are some angry and vulgar behaviors, but He Shi still decided to give him another chance, scholars and doctors all advocate talking and laughing with the artistic conception of Confucianism, when they visit each other, they only bring a name sticker and two sleeves of the breeze, and regard this behavior as a wind from time to time, if you really want to give a gift, I will definitely not be on the scene, of course, acquaintances must be exceptional.

Under the gaze of the two, Chu Zhen suddenly stood up, untied his backpack and opened it, and took out the gift he had made, it was a fairly delicately made scroll, about a foot long, Chu Zhen presented it with both hands, and said respectfully: "Mountain Chief, after listening to your teachings that day, the students have occasionally gained, this is the student's homework in recent days, please give me advice." ”

It's not a vulgar thing in his imagination, He Shi was happy in his heart, nodded slightly, reached out and took the scroll, slowly spread it out and looked at it carefully, there was no movement for a long time, and he seemed to be addicted to it.

"Rise at dawn and sweep the court,......。 A porridge and a meal, it is not easy to think about where you come from. Half a thread and half a thread, the constant thought of material resources is difficult. It is advisable to prepare for the rain and dig wells without thirst. Self-worship must be frugal, and the banquet guests must not stay. ……。 Seeing this, Shao Yong was also curious in his heart, took two steps forward, watched carefully, and recited softly in his mouth, and finally muttered praise: "What a word of self-cultivation and self-governance." ”

In fact, Chu's gift is nothing else, just a 500-word "Zhu Zi's Family Motto", "Zhu Zi's Family Motto" is intended to persuade people to be diligent and thrifty, keep the family and keep to themselves, talk about China's thousands of years of formation of moral education ideas, expressed in the form of famous sayings and aphorisms, catchy, easy to understand, many concepts are very meaningful after a thousand years.

Chu Zhen thought about it, and felt that he had no money to buy expensive gifts, so he simply wrote a sticker and framed it himself, and it was also a common elegant thing for literati to give calligraphy and paintings to each other.

"What Yaofu said is extremely true, Chu Qian, who wrote this article of yours? Why has the old man never seen it? After reading it carefully, I only felt that it was meaningful, and He Shi came to his senses and asked in surprise.

"Zhu Zi's Family Motto" will come out after a few hundred years, when he first copied this article, Chu Zhen had already considered this problem, and when he heard the words, he scratched his head and said: "Qi Yu Mountain Chief, in fact, these are the family mottos handed down by the ancestors of the students for generations, the original instructions Ling Ling scattered, the elders often teach the brothers in the family with this instruction, the students are deeply touched, and they have thought hard for a few days, and they write this article, and they have come to ask the mountain chief to correct. ”

"You wrote that?" He Shi was extremely surprised, carefully looked at the handwriting of the book sticker, the straight words are correct, the structure is clear, it is the Song style character written by Chu Zhen that day, but in a few days, Chu Zhen's pen power seems to have grown, and the handwriting has a little more circle and a sense of flowing water.

"With this article, Xiao Lang will definitely be famous all over the world and will be famous for generations." Scorching stared at Chu Zhi for a while, except for a hint of surprise that seemed to be admirable and shy, he didn't see anything else, Shao Yong sighed.

"Mr. Shao's words are really serious, and the students have no such thoughts, they just hope that they will be affirmed by the mountain chief and return to the academy to study hard in the future." Chu Zhen shook his head slightly, and said with a serious face, if it was a few days ago, Chu Zhen still had this idea, but after being hit several times in a row, Chu Zhen felt that his knowledge still needed to be improved, and low-key was the king.

"If Brother Jichuan doesn't accept you, then you are willing to go with the old man." Shao Yong seemed to be joking, and his attitude was so understated, but He Shi knew that if his old friend hadn't moved this mind, he would definitely not say this.

"Yaofu, such a good student, how could I let it go." His worries that day were really right, the person who robbed the apprentice came, He Shi sighed secretly in his heart, with a smile on his face, and He Yue said: "Chu Qian, the hour is not early, you go back first, as for this family motto, wait for the old man to think about it carefully, and discuss it with you tomorrow." ”
