Chapter 106: Shen's mother who relocated to the land
Shen Yun's answer made Shen Xi and the others completely dumbfounded.
Full of hope but completely desperate, this turn of events made Shen Xi and the others angry: "Little beast, if you don't agree today, don't blame me for being an uncle." If you are laughed at, I will also go to the Qinzhou Yamen to sue you. ”
I am afraid that Shen Xi is the only one who can come up with this method. However, how could Shen Yun be submissive? Looking at the few people in front of him, Shen Yun couldn't help but snort coldly: "You just go and sue, if you want to use your shallow knowledge to block my future, don't blame me, use more direct means to settle accounts with you." ”
After Shen Yun finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the courtyard, ignoring the four of them.
A negotiation broke down, and Shen Xi and the others looked at Shen Yun's back hatefully, stood up and left in embarrassment.
Shen Yun wasn't worried that these people would dare to make trouble. Since three years ago, he has not regarded these people as relatives, so he is naturally more defensive in his words and deeds. There are not one or two who have been cheated by relatives since the Song Dynasty, and the famous Ouyang Xiu has also been framed by his own relatives and daughter-in-law**.
And these people, no matter which one they are, are blinded by interests, and they may do something unfavorable to themselves. Shen Yun would rather define him as a wicked person from the beginning, rather than wait for such people to take advantage of them and then turn around on himself.
Regardless of what happened to Shen Xi and the others, when they returned home, Shen Yun comforted Shen's mother and began to discuss the future with Shen's mother.
"Auntie, the child will go to Gyeongju in a few days. Leaving A-Niang alone, the child is really not at ease. Why don't you go to Gyeongju with your children, and serve at the bedside day and night. "For more than three years, Shen's mother has given Shen Yun enough support, which is an indispensable condition for Shen Yun to adapt to this era. Now that he has an official body and his life is much better, he doesn't want to leave Shen's mother here alone.
However, Shen Yun's filial piety was rejected by Shen's mother after all.
"Son, after you go, be your official well. As long as you can be a good official and let people mention your name, you will praise it, and you will be very happy to be a mother. Now that my mother's body is still strong, I don't need you to follow step by step. Besides, with your sister taking care of you, don't worry about me. Stroking Shen Yun's head, Shen's mother said very satisfied.
It is said that raising children to prevent old age, but in the end, between their son's future and their own future, many parents still choose the former.
"Auntie......" When Shen Yun wanted to persuade again, she was all moved to tears by Shen's mother's faint sigh: "What's more, there is still your grandfather here." I can't leave him alone. Wife and wife, old and old. The two of us have been looking forward to you for a long time, and now that we have got our wish, we don't want to enjoy any more glory and wealth, just be safe and stable, and live here for a lifetime, it is enough. ”
Shen Yun was silent, and for a while, he suddenly didn't know what to say. Shen Mu's explanation is enough, even if Shen Yun says thousands of reasons, it can't be worth this sentence. Even if there are still many people around the courtyard, the house is still quiet, and a whirlwind occasionally rolls up in the middle of the courtyard, it seems that Shen Shan is in the spirit of the sky, and when he sees this scene, he can't help but come back to take a look.
After staying at home for a few days, many scribes in the city invited him.
Shen Yun couldn't refuse, and Shen's mother naturally liked that her son could be so popular, so she naturally nodded and agreed.
When I came to the city, this time the location was not in the Songhe Tower, but in a pavilion not far from the wharf outside the county. When Shen Yun arrived, these celebrities had already sent people to set up tables and chairs, and with a dry pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and food, the pavilion was full inside and out. Shen Yun secretly said to himself, these people are really rich and capricious.
Seeing Shen Yun coming, more than a dozen people sitting idly in the pavilion got up to greet each other.
The leader was actually a few judges of the Songhelou Yuan Xiwen Society, and after the two parties were close, they saluted very politely, and then Shen Yun was taken to the pavilion and sat down: "Shen Chuanyu, we are waiting for you." ”
Seeing that there were both forty or fifty-year-old Confucians in the seats, as well as the masters of state studies, Shen Yun was a little frightened: "Don't call it like this, even if Shen Yun is a scholar, he is also a scholar of Qinzhou." If you don't match it with the font size, you can call me a half-farmer. ”
"If I know correctly, I was only in my early twenties before the half-year agricultural year, and I didn't see the crown salute, how did I have such a name?" According to the Zhou ceremony, the man's twenty crown salutes were given by the elders, and Shen Yun suddenly appeared a half-peasant, so these people were not surprised.
Shen Yun shook his head ashamedly: "When my family was poor, I was determined to go to study in other places, so my parents found an old gentleman to perform the crown ceremony early. There are many rudeness in the cold door, and I also look at the high seas. Shen Yun's explanation made these people dispel the doubts in their hearts. Many of the scholars from the poor family studied abroad when they were young, so this decision is also common among scholars.
However, the words "semi-peasant" made everyone quite admired: "The old gentleman who gave this word that day must have been prescient when he thought about it." This is to remind you that even if you become an official, you must not forget your roots. Bannong, you also did a very good job, the poem at the gate of the state capital, many people have gone to watch it these days. In the past, we like to go to the Songhe Tower for a banquet, you see, now it is not shameless to be extravagant in front of you, so I brought some wine here today. ”
However, even here, the phone bill must be a lot, Shen Yun shook his head, and could only say that you are happy.
While chatting, they ate water and wine. Speaking of Xingnong, Mr. Yi suddenly said: "Bannong, I invite you to come today, but I have something to ask for." ”
Mr. Yi also favored Shen Yun back then, and when he heard him speak, Shen Yun opened his mouth and agreed: "Mr. Yi should not use the word to ask for words, as long as Shen Yun can do it, he will do his best." All the princes are Shen Yun's predecessors, if you have something, please command. ”
Hearing Shen Yun's answer, several people who were originally full of expectations suddenly laughed. With some embarrassment, Mr. Yi continued: "Here's how it is. I have been touring the mountains and rivers, drinking banquets or literary meetings over the years, and I have also written a lot of poems and articles. When you weren't here, you gathered it into a booklet with great interest, and it was a worthwhile reading. ”
"Originally, I planned to write a preface hastily, not to seek to reach the state capital, as long as future generations understand the original intention of our poetry and book heirlooms. But now that you have returned, I want to ask you to make a preface for us. ”
When Shen Yun heard this, he finally understood why these people were a little embarrassed before.
The preface of a book, if you write it yourself, is probably telling others what is written in the book. Often this kind of preface is because of self-humility, and the content may be better than the introduction in the preface. There is also a kind of preface, which is written by someone else. This kind of preface with human affection is inevitably written with some compliments, so the preface is often better than the content.
Shen Yun is the fourth in the first class and the best in Qinzhou in decades.
Asking such characters to write a preface is a gold paste for Mr. Yi and others, and it is good to spread the reputation. In the future, a few copies will be printed at his own expense, and when he gives them to relatives and friends, he can also introduce that this is the preface written by Shen Chuanyu.
To put it bluntly, it is to let Shen Yun tout some of these people's poems.
Shen Yun was really a little crying and laughing at this request, since people talked about it, it was also within his ability, Shen Yun naturally agreed: "I see, I don't know where the poems of the princes are, can you let Shen Yun have a look?" ”
Shen Yun also lowered his posture, between literati, when they have feelings, they praise each other, and when they don't have feelings, they attack each other. Shen Yun didn't want to offend all the Shilin in Qinzhou, so he took the initiative to ask to see their articles, and it would be a good conversation for people to talk about it in the future—both for him and for these famous Confucians.
Mr. Yi made a look, and someone put a few books in front of Shen Yun with a plate.
The top is naturally Mr. Yi's work. Mr. Yi is famous for his lyrics in Qinzhou, and his level is naturally very good, even if Shen Yun reads it, he also feels that the words are beautiful and the meaning is smooth, if he simply puts this word in the imperial examination to evaluate a ranking, I am afraid that it can also be ranked first. Carefully look at each page of the lyrics.
These celebrities waited quietly, and they could see that Shen Yun was reading seriously. Among them, Mr. Yi was the most nervous, and when he saw Shen Yun put down the book, he hurriedly asked: "Bannong, what do you think of my booklet?" ”
"Please bring pen and ink." Shen Yun did not answer Mr. Yi's question directly, but nodded at Mr. Yi with a smile, and when the pen and paper were delivered to him, he wrote in the thin gold font of Qinzhou: "At that time, Jiahe was luxuriant. On the banks of the Weishui River, in the middle of Qinzhou. Confucianism is complete, and there are many celebrities. During the banquet, I suddenly heard that Mr. Yi had a book of words, and I asked for a look, and I suddenly sighed.
Mr. Yi's words are also like leaving a virtuous man in the wilderness and a pearl in the dust. The world only knows the name of Mr., but does not know the talent of Mr., and it is sad. If this is the word of the gentleman, and there are so many people in the world who are like the gentleman. Only leave a preface, and hope that the world will know the talent and reputation of Mr. Shen Bannong of Qinzhou, respected. ”
Shen Yun strictly did not blow or black. But Mr. Yi was already trembling with excitement at this time. Seeing Shen Yun dry the ink and send the paper to him, the old gentleman's hands trembled and received it in his hands, as if he was holding what a precious treasure. After reading Shen Yun's short preface again, he lifted it up and said gratefully: "Bannong is really angry, and the old man has thanked him." ”
This made Shen Yun a little panicked: "I can't help it, I can't help it, Mr. Yi's lyrics deserve praise, but Shen is only a shallow learner, and he can't say more appropriate praise, so he can only do his best." Sir, don't blame, how to deserve the word thanks. ”
After finally appeasing Mr. Yi, when Shen Yun looked at the others again, he found that they were looking at him like hungry wolves. Shen Yun could only pick up the next booklet and read it carefully.
