Chapter 2 The Han family is well-dressed and the Han family is hairy
Unlike Xicui's exaggerated imagination, Wang Kefan did not run on the street at this time, but jogged at a uniform speed in the fields inside and outside Hengshi.
This body is a little thin, which should be caused by years of studying at the desk and lack of exercise. But what is valuable is that this body is only twenty years old, young and energetic, as long as you insist on systematic exercise, you can quickly become strong.
Twenty years old, it is really a golden age, Wang Kefan is a full nineteen years younger! Just rush to this point, and there is nothing to complain about this crossing.
But in the past few days, he is still depressed, and his wife and daughter in the old time and space have a faint pain in his heart every time he thinks about it.
There are also the two old parents in their prime, can they withstand this heavy blow by letting go by themselves? In case there are three longs and two shorts, it is a huge regret that can never be made up for the death of the parents!
Memories of past lives, family affection that is difficult to give up, responsibilities that cannot be completed, guilt and longing for loved ones...... How can all this be easily diluted by the crossing of time and space? If it were possible, Wang Kefan would rather go back to the old time and space than this twenty-year-old young body.
But this is not something that can be changed by manpower, Wang Kefan can only accept the fact that he is separated from his relatives by two lifetimes.
As for the civilian associate professor of the XX Political College of the People's Liberation Army, and other things such as status and status, they are all fleeting clouds and are not worth worrying about at all.
However, in his previous life, he stayed in the army for more than ten years, and after he transferred to a civilian position, he also worked in a military academy, and he never left this big family; Suddenly losing his organization and coming alone to the chaotic times at the end of the Ming Dynasty made Wang Kefan feel an uneasy sense of urgency.
So, Wang Kefan's health improved slightly, and he ran and exercised according to his original habits.
What has been lost has been lost, and what you can't let go of can only be hidden in your heart, and you can do a good job of every bit around you first.
Not long after running out, Wang Kefan was a little panting and his legs were weak, and his forehead was slightly sweaty, but unlike the rumors that were false, Wang Kefan did not "sweat like pulp". Under the deliberate adjustment and running-in, his breathing gradually smoothed, and his legs became easier and easier.
The popularity of the fourth young master of the Wang family is not bad, and the neighbors and villagers he meets on the road will take the initiative to greet him, and Wang Kefan can also call out the other party's name, and there are no flaws in his speech and accent.
Wang Kefan inherited the memory of the fourth young master, and it was not difficult to adapt to his new identity. But there are also side effects, every night dreams seem like schizophrenia, the Four Books and the Five Classics and the "Theory of War" are in a mess in my head, and I have to be in a daze for a while when I wake up in the morning before I understand who I really are.
The real Fourth Young Master has already gone to another shijie, I wish him a good journey all the way.......
Wang Kefan went around in a big circle in the countryside, and when he returned to Hengshi, it was already three poles in the sun, and he saw an old woman leaning on the door of his house from a distance, raising her hand to shade the sun and looking out, and greeted him with a happy face after seeing him.
"Mortal son, are you hungry? Come inside and eat. This old woman is Wang Kefan's current mother, Liu, who has taken care of him a lot these days, and it can be said that she is meticulous, which makes Wang Kefan, a fake son, both moved and weak-hearted.
He should have called Liu his mother, but he really couldn't say it, so he only vaguely responded: "Oh, what are you doing standing here?" It's windy in the morning, so it's time to put on a jacket. ”
Liu didn't mind his son's rudeness, his smiling eyes were full of love, and he responded lightly: "It's okay, get up early and come out to breathe, and your heart is happy." ”
Standing at the gate to breathe, and constantly looking into the distance, why does it sound a little awkward? Seeing Liu's kind expression, Wang Kefan suddenly understood that Liu was actually waiting for him, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting.
This introverted temperament is somewhat similar to the mother of the old time and space, never talking about family affection, but only silently caring about his family behind his back.
Wang Kefan's heart was hot, and he stepped forward and grabbed Liu's arm and stepped into the door: "Go home, I'll accompany you to breakfast." ”
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Xicui jumped out in a hurry, and when he saw Wang Kefan, he shouted and said angrily: "Oh, Fourth Young Master, where are you going?" Let's find it! ”
She counted down Wang Kefan's two sentences, and without waiting for him to answer, she turned her head and shouted inward: "Fourth young grandmother, fourth young grandmother, fourth young master is back!" ”
Fu Shihua responded to the voice, with bow shoes and lotus steps, and her unique demeanor. Wang Kefan's eyes swept to the corner of her skirt, and she saw a pair of small embroidered shoes, she didn't dare to say that the three-inch golden lotus, but she must have wrapped her feet, this custom of mutilating the body is too far from the aesthetic concept of modern people, Wang Kefan couldn't help but shake his head gently.
Fu Shihua glanced at him, bowed his head and bent his knees slightly, blessed with a blessing, and said softly: "The official's body is already very good, it is really gratifying!" ”
Wang Kefan returned the salute and apologized to everyone: "I didn't say hello when I went out in the morning, which made everyone worried, I'm sorry." ”
"Not really." Xicui's mouth was fast, and he relied on Liu's favor, and hurriedly replied: "The young master is in good health, and it is too late for the wife and young grandmother to be happy, how can you compare?" ”
"This girl, there are no rules at all, let the young grandmother laugh for nothing." Liu Shi glared at her angrily, and smiled at Wang Kefan: "Shihua is really virtuous, I have seen it a few times at the door, if it is not inconvenient to go out, I would have gone to look for you with Xicui......"
"Thank you very much." Wang Kefan had no choice but to apologize to Fu Shihua again, and glanced at her again by the way, this titular wife was born very beautiful, her hands were like soft wattles, and her skin was like clotted fat.
Wife? The wife who has been in love for more than ten years is in another shijie, I am afraid that I will never forget each other in this life, compared with her, Fu Shihua, who is like a passerby, has no feeling at all.
Several people returned to the house while talking, and Liu accompanied Wang Kefan to wash his hands and face, then sat down to untie his hair bun and recomb his son's hair in person.
"Fan Yanzi, you are a scholar, and you are famous for your talents, don't say that you have big sleeves when you go out, at least you have to wear a headscarf, wear a long shirt, don't make people laugh at ......"
Although he was counted down by the Liu family, Wang Kefan was a human being in two lives, how could he not know that she had good intentions, and immediately agreed to come down with a smile.
He is not very comfortable with the dress of the Ming Dynasty, the clothes are not enough, the hair is really difficult to take care of, although Wang Kefan has the memory of the fourth young master, he can't complete such a complicated task under his hands, the combed bun makes people dare not compliment, and when he runs, he attracts a lot of strange eyes.
As a lecturer at the military academy, Wang Kefan is very familiar with the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty and is very aware of the great significance of hair in the late Ming Dynasty.
"Keep your hair without your head, keep your head without your hair". One sentence says it all. Hair represents attitude and position, and the Han family's clothing was a symbol of Weidao at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it must be kept no matter what; Unless you plan to be a Manchu Shunmin, you will keep a "money rat tail" pigtail instead.
Thinking of this, Wang Kefan's brows furrowed again, faintly worried about his future situation.
The end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty were famous for the troubled times, full of massacres and wars, and Huguang was the front-line battlefield of repeated battles between the Southern Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
It was the early summer of 1644, and less than a year later, Li Zicheng would lead his army south to Huguang, and the Qing army would immediately chase after him, and the whole of Hubei would fall.
Troubled times are coming, we have to do something about it as soon as possible!
His eyes inadvertently touched Fu Shihua, and Wang Kefan turned his gaze away without waiting for a spark to flash. This is another troublesome matter, he inherited the body of the fourth young master, and also inherited his responsibilities in this world, the troubled times are coming, and his parents and family are pressed on his shoulders.
After a short time, Liu put his hair in a bun for Wang Kefan, the maid sent breakfast porridge and water, and several people sat down to eat together.
"Fan Yanzi, there seems to be something going on in the clan in the past two days, Changfang has sent someone to look for you a few times, do you want to take a look?" Liu's tone was a little hesitant and a little worried, Wang Kefan used to only love to read, and he had always been reluctant to deal with the elders in the clan, but now it is the time when he is recovering from a serious illness, I am afraid that he does not want to see them. But he is a woman's family, and it is inconvenient to show his head outside, since his son has reached adulthood, he will be the head of the family when his father is away, and he must hold up the scene at a critical time.
Wang Kefan agreed very happily: "Haode, I'll go here." ”
In this era, the clan has a strong control over the people in the township, and even overshadows the authority of the government, and the patriarch is even more indisputable, and he must not be offended......
After breakfast, Xicui took out a new set of clothes and helped Wang Kefan change them one by one.
With a Lingyun scarf on his head, a blue silk silk around the waist of his Hu Luo shirt, and a pair of cloud shoes under his feet, wearing this Hanfu with wide robes and large sleeves, Wang Kefan suddenly had a solemn feeling, unconsciously raised his head and shoulders, straightened his chest, and became more and more like a jade tree in the wind.
This is probably the meaning contained in Hanfu, although it is not as practical and convenient as the short clothes and Hufu, but it is elegant and powerful, which makes people dare not indulge in the wreckage, pursue comfort, and invisibly restrain the wearer's behavior, which is conducive to the self-cultivation of scholars.
Wang Kefan wore cloud shoes for the first time, feeling a little awkward, Liu leaned down to tidy up for him, and when he got up, he was a little violent, and his sideburns were slightly sweaty. She didn't care about wiping it, only took two steps back and stared at her son lovingly, and praised with a smile: "It's really a good saying - 'men have three tights', the headscarf, belt, shoes and socks are packed tightly, and my son is really personable!" ”
Wang Kefan's heart softened, and he naturally shouted: "Mother, if there is nothing else, I will go to the long room." ”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to go out, but Liu hesitated for a moment and opened his mouth to stop him.
"Fan Yanzi, when your father leaves, he will explain again and again, my Wang family's various rooms are closely related, honor and disgrace are one, and you must not hurt your peace for trivial matters......" Liu's face showed a faint look of worry, and instructed Wang Kefan: "I don't know what the clan is looking for you to do, remember to discuss everything well, it is not wrong to tolerate it, don't argue with the elders." ”
Liu's words should be a paraphrase of what her husband Wang Rui said, every word is not bad at all, which shows that it has been firmly imprinted in her heart.
Wang Kefan was slightly stunned, nodded yes, and turned around.
