Chapter Twenty-Eight: Kong Rong Makes Pears (II)
As long as Zheng Hongyi has a story to hear, he naturally has no requirements.
Xu Shiji has heard of these three heroes fighting Lu Bu, although what Yan Qing said is very exciting, but he will not be as attentive as Zheng Hongyi.
Leaning next to the bookcase, he picked up the manuscript on the table, and after flipping through the two pages, his eyes lit up.
Before Xu Shiji came to Luoyang, he was already literate.
In terms of foundation, he is much higher than Zheng Hongyi. Although he is nominally an accompaniment, Yan Shigu is still very optimistic about Xu Shiji's qualifications, so he teaches him other knowledge in private, instead of talking about Cangjie alone like Zheng Hongyi.
Xu Shiji saw the first page of the manuscript, writing his familiar Yonggoose script: Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Mr. has been reading the Three Kingdoms recently, how can Yanqing also write about the Three Kingdoms?
Yan Shigu and Yan Qing's gambling contract did not tell anyone. Zheng Yanqing didn't want to say it, but Yan Shigu couldn't say it. If Yan Qing was a celebrity today, Yan Shigu would tell others in a very high-profile manner that he had made a bet with Zheng Yanqing.
But Zheng Yanqing is a little house slave, and how old is he?
Although Yan Shigu was in control of the victory, he made a bet with Yan Qing, and if it was spread out, it would not be glorious to his face.
Therefore, Xu Shiji only knew that Yan Shigu had been studying the Three Kingdoms recently, but he didn't know the truth.
Zheng Yanqing over there is talking about foaming at the mouth, which is wonderful; Zheng Hongyi listened attentively, and even cheered from time to time.
Xu Shiji, on the other hand, watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
In fact, there is only the first chapter written by Yan Qing on the table, that is, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, heroes from all walks of life have responded, Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan have formed a rebellion, and Huangfu Song burned down the Changshe These stories. Xu Shiji had already heard it, but when Yanqing turned the story into words, it became more flavorful. Yan Qing even interpreted the details of the burning of the long shrine, supplemented by the war book and tactics.
In fact, it is a very simple strategy of the art of war, and when later generations interpreted Sun Tzu's Art of War, the burning of the Changshe was a must-use example in the fire attack chapter.
After Xu Shiji finished reading this article, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zheng Yanqing.
Has he already begun to learn the art of war?
When Yanqing failed to worship under Yan Shigu's door, Xu Shiji was still a little proud. What about you? How is it to write a goose? I have now been mentored by a famous teacher, but you can only be enlightened in the schoolhouse. In the future, I will definitely be able to surpass you!
But now he found that Yan Qing seemed to have become an object that he could not surpass.
He is improving, and Yanqing's progress seems to be even greater. He had just begun to learn the scriptures of filial piety, and Yanqing had already begun to study the art of war.
The most terrifying thing is that Yan Qing is smaller than himself!
For a while, Xu Shiji felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.
Am I not as good as him in my life? He thought so in his heart, and he also ignored the things around him. didn't pay attention to when Yan Qing would finish the story.
Zheng Hongyi said: "Brother Shiji, Brother Shiji!" ”
"Ah, what's the matter?"
"What happened to you?"
"I ......" Xu Shiji put down the manuscript, glanced at Yan Qing with a complicated expression, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm fine." ”
"Then why are you red for a while and white for a while, is it uncomfortable?"
"No, no discomfort!"
After Xu Shiji finished speaking, he stood up, "Yanqing, are you thirsty?" I'm going to wash some fruit. ”
Zheng Yanqing smiled and pointed to the fruit plate next to the bookcase, "Grandpa is afraid that I will be thirsty from reading, so I have prepared some here." ”
In the fruit bowl, there are sprigs of wild cherries.
This cherry has the reputation of the first branch of spring fruit, which is the first of all fruits, and it is the fruit of season. When the Grange Orion enters the mountain, he will pick some wild cherries from the mountains and give them to Zheng Sai'an. Zheng Shi'an was reluctant to eat, so he left it all to Zheng Yanqing.
Xu Shiji washed a plate of cherries, and saw Zheng Hongyi cheering, and ran over to take it.
Yan Qing frowned, after Hongyi took a cherry, he and Xu Shiji each took one, and then said with a smile: "Little boy, do you still want to hear the story?" ”
"Yes!"
Zheng Hongyi didn't say a word, immediately sat down and looked at Zheng Yanqing with blank eyes.
"The protagonist of this story is also a famous man in the Three Kingdoms period, named Kong Rong."
Yan Qing swallowed slowly and told the story of Kong Rong making pears.
"Little boy, this Mr. Kong Rong later became a famous celebrity, would you like to be like him in the future?"
The story of Kong Rong Rang Pear, in fact, has been circulated in this era.
It's just that Zheng Hongyi's age is not yet the time to study, so he doesn't know very well.
Xu Shiji heard this story, looked at Zheng Yanqing, and then looked at the thoughtful Zheng Hongyi, and suddenly had a strange idea.
What would it be like if he were to be my husband and Hongyi?
But this thought is only fleeting. Xu Shiji was very ridiculous for his thoughts: This guy is younger than me......
――――――――――――――――――――――――
When Xu Shiji and Zheng Hongyi returned home, it was already dark.
"Little boy, where have you been, Madame is in a hurry."
Cui Daolin hurriedly came out, and while helping Zheng Hongyi get out of the car, he said casually. He originally had good intentions, but he didn't expect that in Zheng Hongyi's ears, it changed its taste. Hongyi also roughly understood that the reason why Zheng Yanqing went to the Grange was because of Cui Daolin. Damn, because you guy, I can't listen to stories!
One afternoon is enough for Zheng Hongyi to become a supporter of Yanqing's attention.
Before Cui Daolin's words fell, he heard Zheng Hongyi say coldly: "Where am I going, do I have to tell you first?"
Are you a young master, or am I a young master? ”
"Ah......h
Cui Daolin's thin face suddenly appeared with a flush, and he opened his mouth to stammer, not knowing what to do. He glanced at Xu Shiji and said secretly: What's wrong with this little young master? Are you angry? Why is there so much anger?
Of course, Xu Shiji knew the reason, and he didn't contribute to it.
So he was silent and followed Zheng Hongyi into the gate of Zheng's mansion. Zheng Renji and Mrs. Choi were there, and Yan Shigu also made a rare appearance in the middle hall, and the three of them chatted while enjoying the delicious wild cherries that had just been delivered from the grange.
"Big brother, why do you seem to have something on your mind?"
Zheng Renji smiled bitterly: "Before I came to Luoyang, Lord Servant asked me to find someone in Luoyang. After so many days, I don't have a clue. You said, the Heluo area is so big and has such a large population, how easy it is to find people. ”
"Who does Lord Servant want the eldest brother to find?"
"It's the goose boy......"
Yan Shigu was stunned when he heard this, revealing a hint of excitement, "Could it be the goose boy who wrote goose poems in the Yanshi Restaurant?" ”
"If it's not him, who else could it be?"
Zheng Renji sighed, "It's strange to say, since this goose boy appeared in Yanshi, there has been no news, as if there has never been such a person." I visited all the celebrities in Luoyang, and as a result, they came to ask me instead...... Brother Xian, the servant shoots the lord and I have the grace to carry it, and I can't do such a small thing, I'm afraid that the adult will be unhappy. ”
Yan Shigu said: "The master walks alone, and we can't guess." ”
Mrs. Cui said on the side: "Maybe that goose boy is an ordinary person and is hiding?" ”
"A woman's opinion!" Zheng Renji was unhappy, "You don't know how powerful that goose boy is." It is said that he is not very old, but he has created a book style, which makes Chang'an Luoyang paper expensive, and all adults are vying to copy it. Lord Servant is full of praise, I heard that even the prince is very good at this, and he also photographed the authentic handiwork of the East Palace leading the guards to Yanshi and rubbing the goose son. ”
Mrs. Cui pursed her lips and did not say anything more.
At this time, Zheng Hongyi walked up to the middle hall and greeted Zheng Renji and his wife and Yan Shigu.
"Hongyi, come here...... "Don't look at Zheng Hongyi, it's not Mrs. Cui's own, but it's really very good to him, like his own life."
"The Grange sent wild cherries, I remember your favorite to eat, so I left a plate for you."
As she spoke, Mrs. Cui stroked her palm, and someone brought a plate of wild cherries and put it in front of Zheng Hongyi.
Zheng Hongyi suddenly smiled, picked up a wild cherry, and was about to put it in his mouth, but suddenly stopped again. I saw him pluck the wild cherries from the hanging branches, then held the jade plate, walked up to Zheng Renji first, and said respectfully: "Daddy, please use it first." ”
Zheng Renji was stunned and subconsciously picked up a cherry.
Then Zheng Hongyi said in front of Mrs. Cui: "Please use it first." ”
Mrs. Cui was overjoyed, her face was about to bloom, and she nodded again and again, "Hongyi is good, you know courtesy at such a young age, and you will definitely be able to become a great weapon in the future." ”
"Please sir."
Zheng Hongyi came to Yan Shigu again and offered it respectfully.
Yan Shigu's eyes also smiled into a slit, "The Zheng family of Xingyang is worthy of a three-hundred-year-old family, and the family style is like this, why not be happy?" ”
Zheng Renji's heart is happy to die.
The son, who has always been a little arrogant, is suddenly polite, and he actually knows what it means to be polite first, how is he unhappy?
"This is a good teaching by a virtuous brother!"
Yan Shigu shook his head and said, "Big brother, little brother doesn't deserve such praise. I just taught Hongyi to read and write, this style of sages is really beyond my ability, and the younger brother doesn't dare to take credit, don't dare to take credit. ”
"Oh?"
Zheng Renji thought that Yan Shigu was polite, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Zheng Hongyi say childishly: "This is what Brother Yanqing taught me." ”
"Brother Yanqing?"
"It's Steward Zheng's grandson!"
Mrs. Cui said sharply: "Hongyi, didn't you go to the Grange in the afternoon." ”
As she spoke, she turned her head to Zheng Renji and said, "Husband, that humble son is too disagreeable, how dare he let Hongyi call him brother?" It is clear that I don't know how to be respectful and humble, and if it is spread out, my Zheng family has been in the door for 300 years, and I am afraid that it will be ruined. ”
Zheng Renji's face suddenly became gloomy.
Zheng Yanqing?
Yan Shigu suddenly asked, "Hongyi, how did Zheng Yanqing teach you?" ”
Startled by Mrs. Cui's appearance, and hearing the teacher's inquiry, Zheng Hongyi whispered, "Yanqing...... Zheng Yanqing told me a story about Kong Rong Rang Pear. Kong Rong is a great sage, he said, I want to learn from Mr. Kong Rong hard, and I will be a great sage in the future. ”
"Hehe, this Zheng Yanqing is an interesting person."
Yan Shigu thought for a while and asked, "What about you, do you want to be a sage?" ”
"I think, so I want to start with Kong Rong and make pears, and I must become a sage like Kong Rong in the future."
Zheng Hongyi's words made Zheng Renji's gloomy face gradually fade.
Although Zheng Yanqing does not know how to be respectful and humble, he is not without merit......
"Madam, for the sake of Zheng Yanqing, he is also kind, so spare him this time." Zheng Renji said softly, and then his voice suddenly raised, "It's just that in the future, don't let Hongyi go to the Grange, study hard at home, and naturally become famous." ”
Although Mrs. Cui was reluctant in her heart, Zheng Renji opened her mouth, and she couldn't say anything more.
looked out of the middle hall unconsciously.
I saw Cui Daolin standing with his hands down, and I didn't know if I heard what he said just now.
No, this minion is too much, you have to teach him a good lesson, and let him know what it means to be humble!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Cui has already made a decision in her heart.
