Chapter Fifty-Three: Revisiting the Old Place
Sending Shen Gui home, seeing that Zhu Aming finally had a change, Shen Yun felt very satisfied.
As he said, now Zhu Aming's family is the only remaining relative, if he sees the silver bottle being sold, how can his conscience be safe.
After returning home and resting for a while, Shen Yun remembered that he still had to go to Fan's Mansion for a while. In the past two years, he has received the favor of the Fan Mansion, if it weren't for this, he would have been forced into desperation by Shen Xi long ago.
Now that the filial piety period has expired, if it weren't for the silver bottle, it would have been a long time ago to thank others.
Looking at the books that had been prepared earlier, Shen Yun thought about it, but still pulled out the paper and copied all the two poems and two articles he had written at the Yuan Xi Wen Conference, and put them in one place with the gift very preciously.
A peaceful night passed.
Shen's mother knew that Shen Yun was going to Chengji County again, so she got up early in the morning and baked the dough, ate a full meal with cabbage and radish shreds, and watched Shen Yun walk outside the village with a package that was not light or heavy.
Coming to the door of Fan's Mansion again, Shen Yun felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
It seems that the last time I came here was more than two years ago. At that time, he had just come to this world, and then he hit a nail at Shen Xi's house, and happened to meet Uncle Quan recruiting scholars on the street to copy books.
If it weren't for so many coincidences, I was afraid that my life would be like my predecessor, swallowing my anger until now. It's just that Shen Shan will still die, and the relationship with those uncles should still be maintained, but he belongs to the one who was bullied.
Feeling the mystery of things in the world, Shen Yun knocked on the door knocker.
It's still the same door, and everything in Fan Mansion doesn't seem to have changed. Seeing Shen Yunmenzi, he was stunned, and before Shen Yun could speak, he had already exclaimed: "Shen Gongzi, it's actually you." ”
After speaking, he enthusiastically let Shen Yun in the door, took the burden, and said to Shen Yun: "I don't want Shen Gongzi to come today." In the past two days, Shen Gongzi can be said in the city, haha, those guys also said that you are a plump and handsome boy in his twenties. ”
seemed to feel that this sentence had a kind of belittling meaning for Shen Yun, so he smiled embarrassedly before he pleaded: "I mean, none of them have seen Shen Gongzi, and they didn't know that you were so young." ”
Shen Yun raised the corners of his mouth: "It's because they have a good reputation, in fact, when they see me, they know that they are just a farmer's child, and they are lucky enough to gain some fame." By the way, where can your family master and Uncle Quan be? ”
Menzi smiled: "The head of the family has already gone to Jingshi." Uncle Quan is in charge of the inside and outside of the house, and there are no guests coming these days, so Uncle Quan should drink tea in the house at this time. ”
I didn't expect the old man to have such a Yaxing, Shen Yun smiled: "Then please say goodbye, just say that Shen Yun came to visit." ”
"What Shen Gongzi said, if Uncle Quan knew that you were coming, he would definitely be extremely happy. I'll take you there. ”
Remembering that he had told Uncle Quan about Shen Yun, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth, and afterwards he asked people to go to the state capital to find Zhang Shi'an to ask for a copy of Shen Yun's work, and Menzi knew what he should do at this time.
After walking around a few fragrant plum trees, I arrived at a quiet courtyard. When he arrived at the arch, Menzi said to Shen Yun with a little apology: "Son, wait here for a while, and I'll go and inform Uncle Quan." ”
Shen Yun nodded, watched the door walk in, and looked at the courtyard carefully.
Different from the design of other places, there is a small lotus pond in the small courtyard, there is a pavilion by the frozen flowing water, and dense bamboo is planted around, although it seems a little defeated because of the season, but in the middle of summer, it is also very beautiful.
After looking at it, Menzi had already returned with a smile: "Shen Gongzi, hurry up and follow me in, Uncle Quan is very happy when he hears that you are here." I'm trying to make you a good cup of tea. ”
Shen Yun was flattered by such treatment. Hurriedly followed behind the door, and it didn't take long to reach the door.
At this time, the door was open, and when the people inside heard the footsteps outside, they had already spoken: "Shen Yun is here, come in quickly." I haven't seen you for two years, and I'll see what you look like now. ”
Shen Yun has great respect for this kind old gentleman.
When he walked to the door, he responded: "Uncle Quan, I haven't seen you for two years, but it's always been good." ”
The years are unforgiving, especially in the elderly, which is more vividly reflected. I haven't seen him for two years, although Uncle Quan has the same spirit, but his temples are gray, and he is old.
Seeing Shen Yun walk in, Uncle Quan looked up and down.
"Yes, I saw you two years ago, and that's it. Although he has grown a little taller, he is still as angry as before. Okay, very. Come, come and sit down and have tea with me. ”
Uncle Quan said this and dragged Shen Yun to the couch.
There is a charcoal fire under the bed, which is very warm. After the two of them sat down, Uncle Quan instructed Menzi: "Let the cook cook a few good dishes and prepare a pot of good wine at noon." ”
Menzi went in response, and Uncle Quan looked back at Shen Yun: "Yesterday, I heard those juniors in the mansion say that your name is spreading in the city, and I still said it, why did you come to the city and not come to see me, an old man." ”
Uncle Quan can say that, obviously he doesn't care too much about this matter. On the contrary, Shen Yun was a little embarrassed.
"Uncle Quan, forgive me, I was going to come to visit, but there was something wrong in the family, if it wasn't for the helplessness, Shen Yun wouldn't want to do such a rude thing."
"Oh?" Uncle Quan raised his eyebrows: "Could it be that Zhang Yan's hairy boy is making trouble for you again?" ”
Co-authored, all my uncles know their experiences in the past two years, Shen Yun smiled embarrassedly, shook his head, and told the truth without omission.
"Silver bottle, is that the little girl who accompanied you to the house at the beginning? Hmm......" seemed to have the impression of a silver bottle in his mind, and Uncle Quan nodded: "That's a good girl, it's a pity that she was sold into slavery because of this matter." ”
After speaking, he looked at Shen Yun and criticized: "If you are short of a few silver taels, why do you need to do this, just come to the mansion to get it." When the little boy left, he asked me to take care of you, just because you didn't delay the mundane affairs. ”
Shen Yun shook his head: "Uncle Quan's love, the kid is self-saving." However, Wang Jinggong has been looking at the world for 20 years, and as soon as he was born, he won the world's hope. Shen Yun is not talented, he has been filial piety for three years, and Uncle Quan has to send books every month. If you don't reveal one or two now, won't you live up to the good intentions of your family master and Uncle Quan. ”
Hearing Shen Yun's explanation, Uncle Quan was stunned, and then pointed at Shen Yun and smiled: "You, you are really angry." But fortunately, you did it too, and even I, an old man in a secluded home, knew that sentence when I suddenly looked back, but the person was in the dim light. ”
"Oh?" When Uncle Quan said this, Shen Yun was really surprised, but he didn't expect the old man to already know his lyrics.
At this time, Shen Yun no longer concealed it. took out a roll of paper from the package and handed it to Uncle Quan very respectfully: "When I came, I wanted Uncle Quan to comment on this word, so I recorded a copy by hand, and asked Uncle Quan to correct it." ”
Accepting the paper from Shen Yun with a smile, Uncle Quan shook his head again and again: "What are you correcting, I'm an old man in charge, where did I get so much knowledge." It's just that I recognized a few words when I followed the master. However, I am also curious about what this well-known article in Qinzhou looks like. ”
Shen Yun smiled embarrassedly and watched Uncle Quan finish reading.
Seeing that Uncle Quan put the paper on the bookshelf very carefully, Shen Yun finally put his mind at ease. This gift finally got the satisfaction of the old man.
"The first poem, after all, is a bit vulgar. Zhang Shi'an is also extremely happy to think about it now, and he has really received unpraised poems for many years during his tenure, and this one is the best. However, don't do this kind of word in the future, otherwise you will always be considered kitsch. ”
When the old man said the last sentence, his voice was a little serious.
Shen Yun knows what's going on, there is a sentence in "Magnolia Slow", "It's a big family affair, why not have a high fever with a silver candle", although it is plagiarized, but after all, there is some suspicion of flattery.
Nodding and apologizing, Shen Yun got up and thanked him: "Uncle Quan taught me a lesson." It was also forced by mundane affairs at that time that he messed up his mind. In the future, the boy will be cautious. ”
Uncle Quan nodded and sat down, the mention has passed, and the next part is the praise.
"If you don't come, I'll send someone to ask for it. The latter poem, I think the little boy will like it very much. As for that strategy, I want to ask the little boy to dedicate it to the saint, what do you think? ”
Seeing that Shen Yun was a little puzzled, Uncle Quan explained: "Actually, I have read your article before. There are many strategies of Shi Wuce for Western Xia that are worthy of reference by these generals in the northwest. ”
"And that scripture and righteousness are a little selfish on my part. Thinking about the beginning, the old man said, 'It's better for a family to cry than for people to cry all the way', and countless officials secretly woke up, not knowing how many people have benefited. In recent years, officials seem to have some old ways. ”
"The political affairs of the mind, body, virtue and measures that you mentioned are very interesting. If the saint can be touched by it, it is also a good thing. ”
Shen Yun was pleasantly surprised, but when he heard Uncle Quan's explanation, he was silent.
My own articles are helpful to my family and country, and I am naturally excellent. But there were other things involved that he had to deal with seriously. He is no longer the half-informed afterlife of three years ago.
Uncle Quan did not urge, but looked at Shen Yun quietly.
After a long time, Shen Yun raised his head, looked at Uncle Quan and said, "This, naturally, is excellent, but I want to ask Uncle Quan to tell Fan Gongzi that the two articles can be handed over to the official family, but don't mention my name." ”
"Why is that?" Such a strange request, Uncle Quan couldn't understand it. This is a good thing in the Sacred Heart, and even Shen Yun can be sealed directly without scientific research at all.
Shen Yun smiled bitterly: "After all, I'm still too young. ”
