Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Three: The Treasure of the Yun Family
Zhao Junshan explained honestly: "My cousin said that if my father decides, I will go to the cloud house to find him." After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you really want to hide this from your mother?" ”
"Do you know what kind of place that Castle Peak Academy is?"
Zhao Junshan only heard that it was a good academy, but he didn't know the specifics, so he shook his head and said that he didn't know, hoping that his father would talk more.
Zhao Juren pinched a piece of dim sum, not to mention, the Yun family's dim sum was really much better than his own, stuffed the remaining half of it to his son, took a sip of tea and said:
"That's the academy that many scholars want to go to! Every time the list is announced, the scholars of Castle Peak Academy can account for almost 30%. In other words, three of the ten Jinshi masters went out of Qingshan Academy! How many academies are there in the world? How many private schools are there? The odds of such a high school are almost only comparable to the school palace. The school palace recruited was originally ranked high in examinations at all levels, and in the capital, it was more convenient to explore all kinds of scientific examination questions. ”
"I think back then, your father and I also wanted to go to Qingshan Academy or the School Palace, but your father and I can't be ranked, and my family background is average, so I can only think about it." Zhao Juren is still self-aware of himself, "Now that your cousin intends to help you, you must seize the opportunity!" ”
Xiao Junshan nodded as if he didn't understand.
Mother insisted on not letting herself go, afraid that it was because of the old conflict between her and Yunshu's cousin, and she was worried that her cousin would do something bad for her. But Cousin Yunshu obviously treats himself very well, and his mother is too worried, but he still has to ask his mother about the cause of the whole thing.
Zhao Junshan asked again, "Then why doesn't my father want me to go to the school palace to study?" ”
Zhao Juren smiled, "It's really a newborn calf who is bold!" First of all, the county government road three tests, you had better get the first case, that is, the first place. However," Zhao Juren was a little apologetic when he said this, "It is true that my father has delayed you in the past two years." ”
Zhao Junshan went to so many banquets with his father, and he also learned the scenes that his father liked, "Isn't my father making long-term plans for his son now?" The son will live up to his father's high expectations. ”
Zhao Juren seemed to see his son Jin Ke and the first, and his heart became more and more happy.
On this day, the weather was just right, and Yun Shu took Yu Hong to a courtyard with terrazzo and brick walls, the gray courtyard walls were quiet and unpretentious, and very low-key.
Standing in front of the dark green porch, Yun Shu looked up at Yu Hong, his eyes were dazzling, and he said mysteriously: "Brother Hong, this is the treasure of my Yun family." ”
Yu Hong looked at the simple face that didn't even have a plaque, but it was very different from the carved beams and paintings elsewhere. Zhao Guo's scholarly house is so low-key that the treasure is so low-key, Yu Hong feels a little interesting, and then looks at Yun Shu's face, "What treasure do you ask me quickly", he couldn't hold back a smile and cooperated: "What baby?" ”
Yun Shu smiled and didn't answer, and stepped forward and patted the door. The dark green gate soon opened, and a sturdy servant stood by the door, and saw Yun Shu bow and salute, "The master is here." Looking at Yu Hong again, his expression was a little weird.
Yun Shu nodded with a smile and took Yu Hong's hand and stepped into the threshold.
Facing a large rectangular pool, the pond is full of water, a row of stone steps in the north slowly enters the water, only a piece of high in the middle, the Taihu Lake stone that is about more than zhang wide, the edge of the ring hole is numerous, exquisitely clear, suddenly look at it like a dark cloud rolling, the center is smoothed, the Danshu "library pavilion" three words, the momentum is magnificent.
Beyond the pool is a two-storey attic that sits north and faces south, east and west six rooms wide, with green tiles and green columns, standing in the courtyard, and a small ear room on the right side. Looking at the courtyard again, there were seven more sturdy men in the courtyard who came to open the door, and they hurriedly came over to salute after seeing the cloud tree. Yun Shu asked them to go about their own business, and they didn't have to wait in front of them, and the eight of them dispersed again.
The so-called busy but the sprinkling and cleaning in this courtyard, the maintenance and rest of all kinds of fire extinguishing equipment, the drying of books when the weather is good in spring and summer, etc., in short, everything in this courtyard is responsible for these eight people, when the head of the house is not there, the cloud housekeeper will supervise the book drying matters.
There were also eight people on shift, and more than half of the servants in this old mansion were used to guard the library pavilion, and the treasure treasury that was valued by ordinary people was considered the last thing in the Yun family.
Yun Shu began to whisper, "Fenghua Courtyard is the small courtyard where my father and mother live for a long time, the study in the front yard is my father's, and there is my grandfather's big study in the main courtyard, and Brother Hong has not seen it yet." In fact, I also have my own small study in the cloud house in the capital, and I also have a big study room for my father. ”
Yu Hong saw several large boxes of books in the small study of Yunshu in Baishu Village, and heard the name of her Yun family's scholarly family, only thinking that she was a lover of reading.
Yu Hong has already understood that the so-called treasure of the Yun family is actually a "book"! This scholarly family of Zhao Kingdom can't help but love books too much, right? Could it be that there are six rooms here, three rooms deep, and a two-story attic full of books? Yu Hong felt a little incredulous, but his face remained silent.
Bypassing the pool, the two came to the attic, and looked up to see the elegant ink scrolls between the pillars.
Yun Shu took out the key from his arms, opened the lock, and pushed it away with a "squeak".
Because the windows are closed, the light in the room is much darker, and when the eyes get used to the dimness of the room, it is indeed a forest of bookshelves, full of books, as vast as a sea of smoke, like Qiu Mountain.
Yu Hong remembered that this attic was some distance away from the pool, and the pedestal was very high, the moisture-proof effect was very good, and there should be other tricks, this house full of books, except for some old smell, there was no damp mold. Thinking that Yunshu has been in Baishu Village for half a year, what about her family? Yu Hong couldn't help but ask. "How long has this attic not been opened?"
Yun Shu thought for a while, "In the half month when I was free in spring, I opened the door and dried my books. At that time, the spring flowers will be exhausted. "As if talking to himself, "When I first came back, I didn't have the heart to check the account books of all kinds of fields and shops, so I carefully posted the books and picked a few boxes and moved them to Baishu Village. ”
Yu Hong understood Mr. Yan's feeling of protecting the treasure of Yun Shu when the master took out the military book from Yun Shu's bookcase and gave it to him, it was indeed the treasure of the Yun family!
"Since these are the treasures of the Yun family, shouldn't they bring me in?" I felt that this was not a good thing to say, and imposed a joke, "I look at the man who opens the door, and look at me like a book thief." ”
Yun Shu turned around to look at the alert men in the courtyard and laughed, "Indeed. Since it is the treasure of my Yun family, it is naturally not easy to show others. Saying that, he hugged Yu Hong's arm, and his tone was soft, half coquettish, "But Brother Hong, you said yesterday that you will be my brother's in the future, are you lying to me?" ”
Yu Hong's heart was warm, and he rubbed Yunshu's forehead, "Naturally not." ”
"Then I'll be relieved."
Yu Hong was amused by her pretending to be relieved.
Yun Shu let go of Yu Hong's arm, turned to the window to the left, and squeaked out a lamppost about the height of a bookshelf. It is said to be a lamppost because of the five glass lanterns that slip from top to bottom.
Yun Shu took out the fire fold from his arms again, lit the bottom one, and then handed the fire fold to Yu Hong. Yu Hong clicked two, and saw that the two above were also difficult.
Yun Shu pushed the squeaky lamppost again, and then Yu Hong saw that there was a wooden ladder inside, and there were several more of the same lamppost.
Yun Shu turned around and smiled at Yu Hong with his little white teeth.
In fact, the ladder has wooden wheels under the same as the lamppost, but the shape is slightly larger, and it is inconvenient for the small cloud tree to push out.
Yu Hong stepped on the wooden ladder and lit the other two lanterns, and the room was much brighter.
Yu Hong pushed the lamppost, and Yun Shu dragged a book table with wooden wheels and layers at the bottom, leading the way in front and introducing all kinds of books.
The first layer is the subset of various scriptures and histories used in scientific expeditions, annotations, and correspondingly, the collection of articles and commentaries in the scientific examinations of all dynasties, as well as calligraphy, geography and other readings, scientific examinations, and must-read books for political states, and songs, fu, poems, words, and prose that cultivate temperament also occupy a part.
The books on the second floor are more miscellaneous, and there are books from all walks of life. For example, cropping, engineering, business, chess, music, singing, dancing, medicine, soldiers, weapons, and even some exercises, etc., are very complete.
"Although there are many rare books, unique books, and rare books in the collection here, in the process of collecting, we prefer the whole book."
The Yun family is a generous and enlightened family of scholars, and they do not hide their secrets, and those whole books that are useful to the society are reprinted and sold, which is also a way to make a profit.
"Your ancestors were very pragmatic in reading!"
For the fame of the reader, I don't like such words. The meaning of these words is not profound enough, and the words are not high-sounding enough, and the Yun family is not such a person. Although the heirs of the Yun family are not prosperous, the understanding of the ancestors is profound, and they know that the talents who truly govern the world for the country and the people are just stepping stones.
Yun Shu thought deeply, "That's true. There are not many books in this family, many of them are collecting books for the sake of collecting books, and my ancestors collected books for the sake of books. So if Brother Hong has anything you like, take it down and put it on my book. If these books can cultivate Brother Hong into a talent for governing the world, it will be worth it! ”
"Believe me so much?"
"Of course, come on, Brother Hong! I'm ready to hug my thighs. Yunshu said cheekily.
Yu Hong nodded at Yunshu's little head, "You think long-term!" ”
Eyebrows? Will you regret it later? Yu Hong decided not to think about it. There are many geographical chronicles on the book.
"Do you want to go upstairs and have a look?"
Yu Hong looked at a large stack of geographical chronicles and maps, "That's all for now." ”
Yun Shu didn't particularly pick out books, what Yu Hong reads left and right, she also reads, and if she doesn't understand, she immediately has guidance or research together.
Yun Shu went to Baishu Village to inform his father-in-law and master that he would not go back for the time being.
It is about to be the reconciliation time at the end of the year, and the affairs of the family must be familiar, and when the time comes, the managers can know who is strong in handling things and who needs to knock more. This is the first time to take over the position of the head of the family, the first time to comprehensively sort out the profitability of the industry, and if the career does not work, the business path will be good!
