Chapter Twenty-Six: Creative Mansion Confucianism Comes to the Door

Du Ruhui took the house drawings handed over to him by Bai Fan and looked at them carefully, only to see that this drawing is very different from the construction drawings that Datang usually sees, but obviously this drawing is more distinctive, not to mention that the painting work is more clear at a glance, just that it is detailed to mark the size of each building, so detailed, it will definitely make the construction progress faster!

"Brother Bai's picture is really amazing, it is eclectic to find another way, so that the drawing can obviously greatly reduce the deviations and errors in the construction process, that is, the old man who does not know how to build, can also understand this drawing! Du admires!

And then there is this courtyard style, which seems to be different from the usual, can Brother Bai explain the old man's doubts, the old man often can't help but be curious when he sees new things! Du Ruhui asked.

"It's easy! Although you don't have a serious architectural background, simple engineering drawing is still no problem! Lord Du has won the prize!

My courtyard is original, it's called 'Courtyard Courtyard', but it's just bigger! You see that this is three main halls, for guests, on both sides are side rooms, the back is the kitchen, in the back of this courtyard is the back house, at the same time there are study, ancestral hall, storage room, small cellar and so on, different functions! Especially the study room, it must be big, but I love to read and write!

In a word, my house! It's not about aesthetics, it's about practicality! Bai Fan was very proud to introduce Du Ruhui!

Originally, because Du Ruhui would praise himself a few words, he didn't expect Du Ruhui to have more problems.

"This sounds very practical! However, but Brother Bai is also a knight now, although he is only a county baron, but the future will definitely be immeasurable, and this mansion is a little too small! How will your servants, maidservants, butlers, and others be placed in the future? ”

Karma! Bai Fan is stuck!

Oh, yes! He is no longer a commoner, and he has become a nobleman and a landlord! Even though they are only the lowest nobles, do they still have to live a lonely life?

However, he is a good young man under the red flag, and one pursues self-reliance, where will he get used to the clothes served by others to reach out for food and open his mouth? It's scary to think about!

Thinking about it, Bai Fan shook his head hard, no!

"This! There are no relatives left in the family, so for the time being, I am alone, and the house is too big and it is a waste! And since childhood, he has studied the scriptures and teachings of the saints and pursued the principle of self-reliance, and he is not used to the service of others, so this servant and maid are not needed! ”

This! Pull oneself up by one’s bootstraps?

Well, what a self-reliance, Du Ruhui secretly praised it in his heart! Looking at this boy who is about the same age as his own child, and then thinking about the unsuccessful child in his own family, he really has to die more than a person, and he has to throw it away! His son is simply a rice worm in front of others!

"Well, Brother Bai can be rich and noble without forgetting his heart, the old man admires it! In this way, it is time for the old man to say goodbye today! ”

After bidding farewell to Du Ruhui, the remaining brothers and sisters discussed the matter of snow and salt for a while, and took Li Chunfeng to clean up all kinds of traces, Bai Fan finally settled down! I can't help but sigh, although I was poor a few days ago, I only thought about eating and drinking every day, but now I don't worry about eating and drinking, but I already have a camp, so I can't help myself! It's really not easy to deal with things, but do it and cherish it!

In the next few days, Bai Fan has been acting as a good teacher, taking his four disciples with him every day and guiding them carefully!

Among them, Cheng Huailiang and Changsun Jian are just ten years old, so Bai Fan only taught the two of them the three-character scripture for enlightenment!

And Cheng Huaimo has already memorized the ninety-nine multiplication table, although his qualifications are not as high as the eldest grandson, but it is not to the point of being stupid, he is just a good martial artist and tired of literature!

The eldest grandson Chong is a bit tragic, originally apprenticed to learn arithmetic to defeat the master, but now it's good, the master is eccentric, only teaching the eldest disciple Cheng Huaimo, but let his two disciples recite the three-character scripture with the two children?

Bai Fan's explanation is: You are arrogant by nature and need to polish it! When your senior brother's arithmetic level can surpass you, your arrogance should be smoothed out, and then it will naturally be the time for you to learn arithmetic!

The eldest grandson Chong was speechless, is this also a reason? Are you sure you're not making excuses for your partiality?

Bai Fan does have his own little abacus, since he promised Cheng Huaimo, he will let him count more than Changsun Chong within a month, of course he has to do it! But I didn't expect that the eldest grandson Chong would also apprentice, so I could only teach him to count later, after all, I had to fulfill Cheng Huaimo's wish first!

Cheng Huaimo also has his own black heart, at first he was very happy to be complacent and happy for the master to open a small stove to guide him, but then after seeing the impatient appearance of the eldest grandson, he had a good idea, he must not learn too fast, defeat him too early, where is the enjoyment of watching him restless every day?

Bai Fan saw all this in his eyes, and silently mourned for the eldest grandson Chong in his heart, it was your misfortune to meet the black goods of the Cheng family!

On this day, Bai Fan was teaching his disciples to read and study in the study room opened by Lao Junguan for himself, but an old man came from outside, this person had gray hair, a thin face, an elegant appearance, and the three strands of long beard were also nearly half white, but his complexion was very good, although he was not young, but his face was ruddy and there were few wrinkles!

The old man came to Laojunguan today to exchange calligraphy with Bai Fan, but he heard that Bai Fan was telling the disciples the story of Meng's mother's three migrations, and he listened to this lesson with curiosity!

Then when Bai Fan finished speaking, he clapped his hands and laughed and entered the study, "I have long heard that Mr. Bai is very talented, and today I saw that it was really extraordinary!" A three-character scripture for literacy was told so interestingly by you, and the students listened to it with relish, even after listening to it, the old man would also remember that sentence: Xi Mengmu, choose a neighbor; If you don't learn, you will be cut off!

If Mr. Tianxia taught the children to learn and could be as ingenious as Mr. Bai, then children's literacy would no longer be a problem! Admire! Admire! ”

Bai Fan had already noticed that there was someone outside the door, but he didn't expect it to be an old man he didn't know, "The old man praised it falsely, Fan is just explaining the meaning of the scriptures in a child's interested tone, it's nothing!"

Dare to ask the old man's surname, why did he visit? ”

Seeing Bai Fan saluting respectfully, the old man smiled and nodded, this son is quite polite! So he also replied: "Old man Yu Shinan, I once saw Brother Bai's calligraphy masterpiece in the Qin Palace, it is really clever, and I came to visit today!"

The old man loves calligraphy all his life, and when he sees good works, it is like seeing a peerless treasure, the calligraphy of Brother Bai has become a family of its own, and there is no other in the world, the old man thinks that calligraphy is not weak to others, but he can't write the book of Brother Bai's arrogance! So I came here today to ask Brother Bai for a treasure! ”

Bai Fan knew in his heart that it was Yu Shinan, a great calligrapher in the early Tang Dynasty! This is a famous person, not only a generation of Confucianism, but also his calligraphy skills!

It seems that today I am stained with the light of Yan Zhenqing, if it weren't for the Yan style book written, it would be difficult for me to see such a senior master!

But this old man should be nearly seventy years old, why does he still look so energetic? Well! I'm sure I'll have to ask him how he takes care of it in a moment! Well, it's really unreliable, people come to exchange calligraphy experience, but you want to discuss beauty with others? Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by the old man with a cane?
