15. Flying
Mr. Su didn't say much to Shi Qi, he just looked, insisting on talking to his mother, and the fourth lady answered Mr. Su's question about the child's usual habits with enthusiasm but a little strange. There are no complicated other procedures, Mr. Su looked at the environment of the Shi family again, and decided to stay, Shi Songshan also participated in the accompanying dinner, after the meal, Mr. Su said to Shi Yuanwai alone: "Your eldest son is not focused, he is impatient, it is difficult to make a big difference, you have to pay attention again." Your fourth lady is a cautious and thoughtful person, the little boy was brought up by her, I found that the little boy inherited her prudence, but there is another lively side, over time, may be a person who can become a big weapon and shine for the family. Shi Yuan didn't say much about Shi Qi's content that was not his own, his purpose was to find a teacher who could teach Changfeng through Shi Qi's education.
Shi Qi is only more than three years old, Mr. Su can't teach much, and he will take one day a week to go up the mountain to play chess with Yun Chi, and he believes that playing chess is also one of the teaching contents. After Shi Qi watched chess for a while, he sometimes learned to play the bamboo flute with Mei Yaoming for a while, and after the jade flute was given to the fourth lady, he only had this simple bamboo flute. Niu Lixin only occasionally exercises Shi Qi's running speed and climbing ability, children are naturally curious, and they have a hobby for these new things whether they are physical strength or use their brains, Mr. Su is by his temperament, and the fourth lady even thinks that Mr. Su is not a teaching material several times, and Shi Yuan is also observing, fortunately, Shi Qi is not his own, he asked to see it again.
When the Chinese New Year was approaching, Mr. Su came to Shi Yuanwai and said: "Shi Yuanwai, I want to go back to see, come back after the New Year, I have arranged the homework of the hour, please supervise the fourth lady, don't waste it, no matter how much you study, you must form a habit, if you lose your habits, there will be no motivation to improve." Shi Yuanwai didn't see how much Shi Qixue went in, the child was still young, so he agreed, gave him a salary, and prepared a small gift for him for the New Year.
He came to the backyard, and the fourth lady was completing the homework assigned by her husband as required to let Shi Qi for the day. Shi Yuanwai took the homework and took a look, it was just a few simple and simple children's poems, and he didn't see Mr. Su's excellence, Shi Yuanwai said: "He doesn't teach much, you see if you want to change the teacher, and the wind will be strong soon, I think he said that others are not serious, and he is not serious." The fourth lady said: "I also observed, although he didn't teach much, but the time to enlighten the meeting is more miscellaneous, no matter what, Mr. Su understands, since it was recommended by your friend, do you want to stop observing for a period of time?" Shi Yuanwai agreed, anyway, Shi Qi was just his experimenter.
During the Chinese New Year, Mei Yaoming asked Niu Lixin to send a rich vegetarian meal to the abbot of Yun Chi, after the meal, Yun Chi came over to accompany Mei Yaoming to make a few plates, and when he looked outside to see that there was no one, he suddenly asked: "Mr. Flute is not made up by himself, right?" I listened to the tune you taught when I played, it should have been played by a friend of mine when I was young, but he used a jade flute, if you use that flute to blow out, the taste will be better, but unfortunately his family was destroyed, I thought I would never hear it again, I didn't expect to meet me again here. ”
Mei Yaoming did not stop the chess pieces in his hand, he said: "There may not be two flutes, but the tune can be spread, and I just accidentally met a passer-by on the mountain and learned from others, but he didn't use the jade flute you said." The two of them chatted about something else while playing chess, they both admired Mr. Su's knowledge and chess skills, Yun Chi said: "Although your granddaughter is not a boy, she can also learn some knowledge from Mr. Su, and it is also useful to educate your children in the future. ”
Mei Yaoming said: "They are big families, we don't go to ask them, besides, a girl, it's not good to learn too much, a woman is not talented is virtuous, and when you have a grandson in the future, thank you Master Abbot for your kindness." That night, Mei Yaoming told Shi Caishuang that when she had the opportunity to go to the house, she reminded the fourth lady that the jade flute given by their family should not be shown easily, especially not in front of the abbot, Yun Chi may know the background of the flute.
When Shi Caishuang found the fourth lady to explain the situation, the fourth lady said: "That's your family's family heirloom, you tell Mr. Mei, not only will I not show people, but I will not let the child touch it, and when you have a son, or another suitable opportunity, I will return the flute to you." "When Mr. Su came to the house again, he was not received as warmly as last time, but fortunately, he didn't care very much.
One day, when Shi Yuanwai chatted with Mr. Su, he said: "I see that Shi Qi has not learned anything except for the handwriting, which is a little bit like writing?" His mother can count on him to test his fame in the future. Mr. Su said: "I teach great talents, there have been more than one successful example before, if I find that it will fail, I don't need you to rush, I will secretly leave myself." Shi Qi is different, he is not only talented, patience, self-restraint ability is rare, is a rare child, can halve my salary in the future, three or five years later, if you find that the child can not develop in the direction you want, I myself have no face to stay. ”
Mr. Su took Shi Qi up the mountain to play chess as usual, Yun Chi still let his apprentice help Mr. Mei push him out to bask in the sun and watch chess, Yun Chi said: "Mr. Su, when you went home for the New Year, a friend of mine on the road came to stay, and found that Shi Qi, this kid stepped on the mountain and climbed the tree freely and flexibly, and also tried his muscles and bones, and wanted to accept him as an apprentice and learn martial arts. Wouldn't it be a good thing that you can open a school nearby by yourself, and with your ability, you will definitely be able to teach more children, and we can also have more time to play chess? ”
Mr. Su said: "I also found out a long time ago, he is because he lives on the side of the mountain, usually comes up a lot, and Niu Lixin has brought a lot, so with this kind of skill, if he can have a skill, of course it is a good thing, but it can't delay his fame, that is his mother's wish." When will the man you are talking about come again? Let me see, wouldn't it be better if we could learn martial arts during the day and literature at night, wouldn't it be better for us to cultivate a great talent who is both civil and military in this mountainous and wild place? ”
Yun Chi hesitated and looked at Mei Yaoming and told them that this friend was a famous Jiangnan Liu family in the past, originally a scholarly family, but later because he saw through the squeeze of officialdom, he gave up writing and became a rich man on the rich side of Jiangnan. Because when the second son of the Ouyang family, the minister of power, went to the south to relieve the disaster with the sword of the Son of Heaven above, he passed by the Liu family, and was envious of their gardens and courtyards, regardless of the Liu family's warm reception to him, and actually had the idea of occupying other people's farms. If you want to add to the crime, there is no word, the Liu family was broken by them, and they had to leave their hometown.
Yun Chi looked at the two of them again and said: "I am also a person with six impure roots, I have also seen the two of you, I am not a bad person, I think you have thought of it, the master I said is surnamed Liu." I am a friend of his father's generation, just because there is such a big mess in their family, they think that scholars are useless, rich businessmen are not worthy of sin, only learning martial arts, not only can protect the body, but also can bloody enemies. Therefore, their Liu family relied on their previous fame, and found more than one martial arts person outside the world, I am talking about the second son of their Liu family's former second room, called Liu Quanchao, he heard that a new temple was opened here, and he happened to meet me, and he didn't find that there was a master he wanted, so he went and promised me to come back after a while, mainly to see the attitude of the Shi family towards Shi Qi Xuewu. ”
After Mr. Su went down the mountain, Mei Yaoming asked Yun Chi: "Dare to ask the abbot who also has a holiday with Ouyang Ximu?" Or is it just because a friend is unhappy? Yun Chi looked at Mei Yaoming vigilantly and said: "I am a monk now, there are no grievances, there are no grievances, everything is practiced, the main reason is that my words caused a misunderstanding, I can take it back." Mr. Su is a cautious person, I think Mr. Mei is a person with limited mobility, he talks a lot for a while, which may disturb you, please don't worry about it, the mountain wind is strong, if you talk too much, let the wind blow away. He said a salutation and got up and went back.
As Shi Qi grew older day by day, the fourth lady found that his speech was no longer a simple child's voice, and his spoken language had a strong bookish sentence structure, and the words and allusions were often used just right. Yun Chi said that Liu Quanchao did not appear again, but Mr. Su took him to heart, and after a day of chess, Mr. Su asked, "Why didn't the Liu Gongzi you said come?" Yun Chi said: "I inadvertently revealed his background last time, and I didn't want to make trouble for him, and then he came once, and I just told him that Shi Qi was still young, and asked him to wait a few years to come again, and I also wanted to see the movement." He glanced at where Mr. May had left.
Mr. Su said: "Mr. Mei is not a troublesome person, he should be able to rest assured, of course, this is an eventful time, it is better to be cautious, but the child is about to grow up, and learning martial arts can be from an early age." Yun Chi said: "Shi Qi's conditions are good, and he goes up the mountain and trees with you every day, there is no problem with his physique, learning martial arts, skill is only one aspect, strength is the determining factor, he has his current physique, and if he gives skills appropriately, he will not be delayed." You have to lay a good foundation in half of his cultural lessons. Mr. Su was confident in his teaching ability and Shi Qi's receptivity, and the two broke up easily.
Liu Quanchao never left Lin Qian Temple, because Yun Chi told him that this was a reliable place to stay, and with his current ability, he could enter the house and ask for Ouyang Ximu's life without much trouble, but I heard that he not only had many henchmen, but also many descendants. If you startle the snake, even if you kill one or two members of his family and make them vigilant, they can't retake their manor, they can only listen to Yunchi and think in the long run. But if he really wants to bring down the entire big tree of the Ouyang family, it will definitely not work by relying on the power of the puppet, so he has the idea of cultivating the successor power, cultivating the seeds of revenge, and using Lin Qian Temple as a base to accumulate more strength.
