Shen Rui is young and old, and he has always been sensible; Shen Jue has been stared at by the third master these days, and he can't finish his homework every day. The two brothers came hand in hand, and wanted to invite three or five friends to relax at home for a day, where would the Xu family stop them?

Xu nodded and said, "It's cold these days, and I can freeze the ice." How did Brother Rui and Brother Jue think of Bing Xilai? It's okay to ice bed, if you skate, you can't compare to Taizhi and the second brother of the Yang family......"

Shen Rui smiled silently and looked at Shen Jue.

Shen Jue smiled "hehe" and said, "I haven't seen it since I was a child, it sounds weird and funny." When I returned to Beijing this time, when I passed by the suburbs of Beijing, I also saw the urchins in the countryside frolicking on the ice. ”

Xu Shi glanced at their brother and said, "I need to ask someone to make skates for you, and I need to make thick cotton clothes, and I will wrestle hard at the beginning of my game on the ice......" Speaking of this, he looked at Shen Jue and couldn't help but hesitate.

Shen Rui's mind moved, and he understood Xu's concerns.

It's very easy to fall when playing on the ice, and it just hurts if you fall into the flesh, in case you break your bones or something, you have to delay Shen Jue's boy's attempt.

Shen Rui said: "Just skates, you can level out a large area of six or seven points in the garden, and it's not refreshing to want to skate...... The child had read in a miscellaneous book earlier that Song Shi Bing had a curling game. Or maybe we'll get someone to try and play that ......."

Xu Shi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said curiously: "Curling? I've never heard of it, and I think it's long since the folk. ”

Shen Rui can't say that this is an ice and snow competition in later generations, originating from Fanbang thousands of miles away, so he pretends to be seen in miscellaneous books.

Although Shen Rui knows the rules of curling, the current conditions are not enough, and there is no need to make them so complicated.

"Since you want to be grouped, it's going to be a game to decide the winner" Shen Jue was young and competitive, gearing up: "When the time comes, you can find some good things as a reward." ”

Xu Shi listened to it as just a throwing game, and he didn't need a physical collision and was not easy to hurt, so he nodded and shouted

Although Shen Rui's introduction has simplified the rules of curling and game equipment, the two game props of curling and ice brush cannot be streamlined. Shen Rui asked for a pen and paper, and wrote down the materials and general specifications required for the production of curling stones and ice brushes.

Xu Shi looked at it and said, "This is played by your man, and it is a big one." If it is changed to a small pot, it can also be used as a daughter in the boudoir. ”

Shen Jue nodded and agreed: "It can just be done together, and the eldest aunt can come out of the third aunt to loosen her muscles and bones if she has nothing to do." ”

Xu Shi laughed when he heard this: "At my age, if I go to play, I will be laughed at as disrespectful." This is for Sister Yu. The ice rink is ready, and when your brothers have played, let Sister Yu's girl invite a few sisters to play. ”

At the beginning of September, Mao Chi left Beijing and returned to his hometown, before he left, it was still Master He as the big media, and the Shen and Mao families officially passed the marriage book and decided on the marriage of Sister Yu and Mao Chi.

Until the end of the day, Sister Yu had to prepare for marriage at home.

Xu felt that she was a child who knew what to do, but she was too restrained and sensitive, and she was a little less atmospheric.

Although the Mao family is from a craftsman's background, it is now the champion.

Mao Chi's father is not of high grade now, but he often goes in and out of the forbidden middle, which is valued by the emperor, and he will definitely rise in the future. Sister Yu used to be the eldest daughter-in-law, of course, she couldn't be petty.

Xu wanted Sister Yu to show up more face-to-face and socialize, so she went to the restraint on her body.

Since you want to have a treat, you must prepare a post first, and you can't bring someone over temporarily, which is really disrespectful.

Shen Rui discussed with Shen Jue and drew up a list.

He Taizhi and Yang Zhongyan's two cousins can't be left behind, Shen Quan will go directly to Nanjing to take the hospital examination next spring, and now he is still in Beijing, so he will be added.

Qiao Yongde and Qiao Yongshan's cousins were not invited, and Qiao's couldn't find fault because these two were in filial piety.

Yang Shen is of the same age, and he is Shen Rui's future brother-in-law, so he has to be counted as one. He wanted to go out of Beijing to study before, and he was able to get his wish after the most lu, but he didn't go far, only arrived at the Daimyo's mansion, and came back before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In addition to the relatives and in-laws, Shen Jue did not go out to study when he was in the capital, and he did not meet friends outside, but on Shen Rui's side, there were several friends outside.

Too many people are chaotic, too few are deserted.

Shen Rui divided the weight in his heart, and said: "There are four people above, plus you and my brothers, and I have also met two new friends, both of whom are of the same age, and they have also been to the house in June, so there are eight people." Brother Xiaodong went back to his hometown, but Brother Xiaolin is here, so I will add Brother Xiaolin......"

Shen Jue, who was not a bystander, couldn't help but hesitate when he heard the mention of Brother Xiaolin: "The sister-in-law of the six clans is bent on Jackie Chan, let's call Brother Xiaolin to play, and the sister-in-law of the six clans is afraid that she will not let go." ”

Although Shen Rui knew that several pavilion elders in the early years of Zhengde had been expelled from the imperial court, and the Shangshu Mansion and Shen Li were also tacitly estranged, this did not mean that he was ruthless to Shen Li.

Shen Rui remembered the love of three years of shelter and employment.

If it weren't for Shen Li's identity as both Xie Qian's protégé and his son-in-law, and the hardcore Xie Dang, who couldn't tear off the relationship, Shen Rui would have wanted to persuade him to defect a long time ago.

As early as that reception in June, Shen Rui thought of Shen Lin. It's just that I didn't know Brother Shou's temper at that time, Shen Lin was young and young, so he didn't call him if he was so sensible.

Ordinary boys love to play with their older brothers, and Brother Shou also has this tendency; However, for children of the same age or similar, he is also curious and a little tolerant in his observation.

Xie Fang is just a veteran, a generation of virtuous ministers, and when the old and the new are replaced, even if he is excluded and returned to his hometown, he will retire, anyway, he is already over the age of six.

Shen Li is in his prime, and it would be a pity if he was dragged down by his father-in-law and cut off his career from now on.

Brother Shou's temperament is joyful and angry. If you have a friendship with Shen Lin, for the sake of this old relationship, even if you depose Shen Li, you will not be completely disgusted, and there will always be a day of recovery.

Shen Jue didn't expect Shen Rui to plan for three or five years, thinking that in the first half of last year, he would be happy with all the families in the capital, but after the heir was decided, the two families with Shen Li and Shen Yi gradually faded, and only the Shen Ying brothers in the fifth room were still close.

It's not that Shen Cang and the Xu family are guarding against their heirs and nephews from getting close to their original relatives, but Shen Li and Shen Ji seem to be avoiding suspicion, and they no longer have to deal with each other as before.

Shen Jue was young, and he couldn't imagine that the current situation in the government would go up, so he just avoided favors.

The heir and the relatives of the family should not be too close, otherwise it is the son of the family or the son of the heir's parents?

As for Shen Li, although he is not Shen Rui's family, he took care of Shen Rui as a father and brother before, but now he takes a step back and no longer interferes in Shen Rui's affairs, and he also respects Shen Cang and his wife.

In this way, is it inappropriate for Shen Rui to invite Brother Xiaolin?

Shen Jue thought about it, but still persuaded: "Brother Xiaolin's side just ask, just come, if you can, don't force it." It's not just a matter of delaying his study, but it's not easy to explain to the brothers and sisters-in-law of the six clans when he bumps into him. ”

Shen Rui listened, thought of Xie's behavior, nodded and said, "What we said was lively, I can't say that the sixth sister-in-law won't let people come at all." Just hand over a post and let it be. ”

Although the Xu family arranged manpower, there was no need for the two brothers to build an ice rink, but Shen Jue also walked around there every time. The post has been scattered, and now it is waiting for a treat.

When Shen Ruisui finished the exam, Xu's side also asked people to make "curling" and "ice brushes" according to the drawings

Although it is not as good as the professional curling of later generations, it still looks like it.

The curling stones are divided into two sets, one set of large ones, each of which is nearly thirty pounds; A small set is only eight catties, and each set is sixteen.

The ice brushes are also divided into two sets, each set of six, all made of horsehair, and also divided into large and small sizes. When playing, use four ice brushes and the other two as backups.

When something was made, not only Shen Jue was eager to try, but even the third master was interested. Although he has been in poor health over the years, he is proficient in all kinds of elegant play, and now he is very curious when he encounters new games.

However, the ice rink is only frozen, and it has not yet been polished, so it is not easy to throw the curling stone.

Rao is like this, and the third master also noticed the fun of this game, and asked Shen Rui: "In which book did Brother Rui read it?" This game is late, and now it is the wax moon, if you think about it at the beginning of winter, it will be popular in the capital now. ”

Shen Rui pondered and said: "It's a miscellaneous book I saw in the old bookstore in Kaifeng back then, it seems to be called "Bianjing Travel" or "Bianjing Notes", I can't remember it clearly......

In the eleventh year of Hongzhi, Shen Rui followed Wang Shouren to the north on foot with a bitter Zen master, and the elders here also knew about it.

Hearing Shen Rui say this, the third master knew that he saw it that time.

Kaifeng Mansion used to be Song Jing, and it is common to see similar notebook novels in the local area.

Although the third master is well-read, he can't say that he can know the affairs of the world, listening to Shen Rui's words, he knows that it is an occasional reading, but he feels a pity: "I haven't seen this book in the capital, but it's a pity, there are a lot of notes on the world, and it has been annihilated......"

Two days later, after the results of the annual examination, Shen Rui undoubtedly got a "first class".

The annual examination and the scientific examination are the same, a total of three articles need to be done, four books and two articles, one scripture, the arts and sciences are very smooth for the first class, the general smooth is the second class, the barely smooth is the third class, the flawed is light for the fourth class, the flaw is serious for the fifth class, and the bullshit is not clear for the sixth class.

If it is a student, the worst will be the third class, the fourth class will stop the subsidy, the fifth class will cancel the qualification of the student, and the sixth class will also be in danger.

The students admitted to Shuntianfu School are the best in the land of Yifu, and the sixth class rarely appears in the annual examination, and the fifth class is also rare. In contrast, the number of people who have passed the first class every year accounts for three or four percent.

Shen Rui, the "first-class", although he didn't say that he wiped out everyone, was not so eye-catching.

However, Shen Rui was satisfied, and set aside one day to prepare to entertain guests at home the next day......
