"The old man went to the state city and happened to pass by when he came back." Li Fuzi shook his sleeves and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said, "I don't want to see your act of burning the piano and cooking the crane." The acacia flowers are ethereal, there is no sin, and you are not a three-year-old naughty child, but you actually went up to the tree to pick flowers, which is really insulting. ”

For this somewhat pedantic but cute old master, Zhao Yan really didn't know what to say, so he could only obediently bow his head and be trained.

Li Fuzi talked for a long time, I don't know if he saw Zhao Yan's good attitude in admitting his guilt, or if he was tired, and when he saw a bluestone next to him, he stopped talking, brushed it and sat up.

"What the Master taught me is that the students know what is wrong." Zhao Yan looked at the posture of Master Li, and had the intention of continuing to preach, and felt bitter in his heart, and hurriedly took advantage of the gap to accompany the smiling face and respectfully 'confess'.

Li Fuzi's mind has calmed down, and he feels that he does seem to be making a big fuss, and after seeing the acacia flowers on the ground, his heart moved, and he muttered: "The old man has a pair, if you can match, the old man will forgive you for this act of drying under the flowers." If not, how about you bury these acacia flowers? ”

"Students want to hear about it." Zhao Yan said in his heart, even if I can match it, in order to pat your old man's ass, I can only bury this flower.

Li Fuzi nodded, thought about it and said: "Shanglian is: Today's young man is wandering, climbing trees and swinging flowers like a cow chewing peonies. ”

Zhao Yan has been tortured by Li Fuzi these days to be a *immortal* death, but he has some basic skills in writing, and this pair is similar to "Thousand Character Text", seeking neatness and coordination. He has been using his brain a lot lately, and in addition to the ability to approximate the ability to remember after crossing over, his thinking is also becoming clearer and clearer, and he has a draft in his heart after a little groaning.

"Master, the student's next link is: He is a young scholar, and he will not forget the teacher's kindness." Zhao Yan was proud, this couplet was not only neat and tidy, but also slapped the old master's sycophants, and he really had no one.

Don't forget the teacher's kindness? Old Master Li was quite relieved to hear this, in his opinion, although Zhao Yan has a thin foundation, but in these days, his cleverness is not inferior to those so-called 'prodigies', and he is also quite skilled in acting as a person, and he has recited it by his eyes, almost never forgetting, and he is much stronger than he was at the beginning.

"Hmph, it's really shameful for a little boy to dare to say that Toad Palace is a laurel." Li Fuzi had a straight face with an inappropriate mouth, but the look in his eyes betrayed him.

Zhao Yan didn't have time to observe Li Fuzi's expression, listening to the old master's words, it was quite like Shanglian, thinking that he was addicted to the pair, his eyes rolled, fortunately he swept the smile in the old master's eyes, otherwise he would blurt out the next link without thinking about it.

'Ha, the old man has no one in his eyes, it's nonsense. Fortunately, this sentence of 'Xialian' was rotten in my heart, otherwise once Zhao Yan said it, I don't know if the old master would be angry.

The days passed, the lotus flowers were light after the acacia flowers, and the moon was fragrant in July.

In the small courtyard where Zhao Yan and his son live, there are several clusters of moon seasons, which are colorful and fragrant after they bloom. Zhao Yan sometimes couldn't help but think that if he picked these petals and made them into perfumes and sold them, he would definitely make a fortune, but he just thought about it, and after thinking about it, he forced himself to continue to pick up the book and start studying the 'words of the sage'...... Practice calligraphy.

Taige style is the general font of the examination room formed by the imperial examination system, its shape is characterized by jet black, Fangzheng, light swamp, etc., from the Ming Yongle period of the scholar Shen Du, in the Ming Dynasty called the Taige body, the later Manchu Qing Dynasty is called the pavilion body.

After Li Fuzi saw Zhao Yan's calligraphy, he deliberately pointed out a few words to him. For example, holding a pen with five fingers, there is no definite way to hold the pen, to make the void and wide, the palm is as empty as holding an egg, and wrist strength is the key, etc.

Zhao Yan listened to it for a long time in a daze, and finally concluded that if you want to practice words well, you still need to calm down and practice more, figure it out more, and it is best to copy it according to the template.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of celebrity calligraphy and paintings in Wang Dahu's study, and there is naturally no shortage of various calligraphy, so Zhao Yan borrowed a few calligraphy and copied a few characters every day as long as he was free. In the past two months, his handwriting has been decent and decent, but if you let insiders read it, you can only barely see it.

At this time, it was the middle of July, it was the hottest time of the year, originally Li Fuzi's lecture was ten days of rest, but in the last few days it was too hot, and the room was too stuffy, and it was inevitable that there would be a tendency to suffer from heat stroke after staying for a long time.

Wang Er was stunned for a long time, but now that he has time to play, he is naturally very happy, and he came to the Zhao family's courtyard early in the morning, and then woke up Zhao Yan, who was sleeping in the cool morning.

Zhao Yan looked at the two closed courtyard doors with sleepy eyes, and could vaguely see the brass locks outside, and couldn't help rolling his eyes, and wailed: "Senior brother, didn't you see that your master deliberately locked the courtyard door before leaving, I just want to sleep lazily, you can play by yourself." ”

A few days ago, Wang Lin heard that in the pond in the south of the state city, someone had fished up a giant soft-shelled turtle more than five feet long, and he had long been eager to try to salvage it, maybe there were really shrimp soldiers and crabs in it.

It's just that Wang Lin doesn't know water, and it's too lonely to go alone, so he begs Zhao Yan to accompany him.

In the end, Zhao Yan had to get up and wash up, eat something casually, and then follow Wang Lin to the south of the city.

This pond is about a mile in circumference, and it is called the Great Dumping Pond, and I don't know why it got its name.

When Wang Lin and Zhao Yan arrived, the Sun Gonggong had already risen high and was unscrupulously exuding a scorching brilliance.

The insects and frogs in the pond are chirping, the verdant lotus leaves, the elegant lotus flowers, the weeping willows by the pond, and the young children playing are a good picture of vitality.

"Senior brother, here you go." Wang Lin also found two simple nets made of wicker out of nowhere, and after reaching out and handing one to Zhao Yan, he ran to the pond and threw his own nets out with his hand.

It's rare to rest for two days, Zhao Yan just wants to sleep in the dark, the sun and the moon are dark, and he is really not interested in fishing like a child.

Seeing that Wang Lin was just wandering on the shore and had no intention of going into the water, Zhao Yan also put his mind at ease, looked for a weeping willow with lush branches and leaves, and Shi Shiran sat in the shade of the tree and dozed off.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard Wang Lin shouting not far away: "Senior brother, senior brother, I caught a big fish, what kind of fish do you think this is?" ”

After shouting for a long time, seeing that Zhao Yan did not move, Wang Lin was not too hot, so he ran to the tree with his willow net, and showed Zhao Yan the poor fish that was dying inside.

The fish that Wang Er was stunned to catch was indeed not small, about a foot long, with blue-black scales, and at this time the mouth was opening and closing, and the two eyes were staring at each other, and it was estimated that he could catch his breath for a while.

Zhao Yan opened his eyes and looked at them, then closed his eyes again, and said: "This is a carp, there are generally carp, grass, silver carp, crucian carp in the pond, carp has whiskers, grass carp body is long and head pointed, silver carp head is large and small, crucian carp is similar to carp, but there is no beard." ”

After pausing for a moment, Zhao Yan couldn't help but say again: "It's best to find a fish basket to soak in the water, and then put the fish in it, otherwise it will die after a while." ”

"Oh." Wang Lin nodded, looked around, and saw a fish basket on the edge of the pond more than ten zhang away, but there was no human figure around, so he sneakily slipped over and picked up the fish basket.

As soon as Wang Lin immersed the fish basket in the water, he heard someone shouting: "Okay, everyone dares to steal Miss Ben's things, believe it or not, Miss Ben pulled you to report to the official?" ”

"I didn't steal, I just ...... It's just a bit of a borrowing, and my brother can testify for me. Wang Lin was a thief with a weak heart, and before he could see the person who came, he shouted loudly to defend himself.

"Hee-hee...... Silly big guy, why are you? And that dirt bun. The person came over with two small pigtails, glanced at Zhao Yan under the willow tree with a smile, and then looked at the fish basket in Wang Lin's hand.

Wang Lin took a look, couldn't help but breathe, and muttered in his mouth: "Who did you think it was, it turned out to be the little girl of the Li family, who scared her son to death." ”

The person who came was Li Yun, the youngest daughter of Li Yingqiu of the Li family in Nanzhuang, who hadn't seen her for a few months, but the little girl was getting more and more smart.

Li Yun tugged at his braids, and when he saw the fat carp in Wang Lin's hand, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly said, "Hmph, you thief who steals the fish basket." Miss Ben thinks that you are a first offender, so she will be lightly dismissed, you just need to return the fish basket, and then give the fish to Miss Ben, and Miss Ben will not blame the past and not tell my father about it, how about it? ”

"Cut...... It's just a fish, I'll give it to you, I'm afraid that you won't be able to lift it too much, and I'm not afraid that you will tell your father. "Xu is influenced by Zhao Yan, Wang Lin's choice of words and sentences when he speaks is more and more like him, and the word 'cut' and tone are learned vividly.

Li Yun glanced at Wang Lin with disdain, and retorted: "What do you cut?" Believe it or not, Miss Ben had you chopped up and fed the fish? Hmph, you just put the fish basket at my feet, and Miss Ben didn't say I came alone? ”

After scaring Wang Lin, the little girl turned around and shouted towards the way she came: "Li Er, Xiang'er, hurry up, I caught a big fish, you can't come and run away." ”

A man in a green coat and a little hat and a teenage maid trotted over, Li Yun pointed to the carp in the fish basket and showed off to the two people: "Xiang'er, Li Er, look, is the fish I caught big?" I'll go back tonight and make you fish soup to drink. ”
