Chapter 18 The trouble that the "starting point" is too "high".
"Hmmm! Delicious, delicious! Shen Baozhen only felt that his mouth was full of slippery and soft feeling for a while, and the fragrance penetrated into his heart and spleen, and he couldn't help but praise again and again. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info He finished eating one incense ball, and he couldn't get enough of it, so he took another one, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"Master, slow down, be careful of choking." Lin Puqing saw that Shen Baozhen was eating in a hurry, and hurriedly reminded on the side.
Shen Baozhen nodded, picked up another incense ball and ate it.
"I can't imagine that Kunyu, a child, will have such a craft." Lin Puqing ate an incense ball, and couldn't help but praise Lin Yizhe.
"This should be Wan'er's credit." Shen Baozhen ate several more incense balls, took the handkerchief from the maid's hand, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said disapprerovingly, "Where would he do this." β
"It was indeed done by the young master, master." The maid said on the side, "The young master's skills are good, and the people who help in the kitchen praise it." β
"Oh?" Shen Baozhen couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.
"I've never seen Kunyu do anything before, and I don't know where he learned this craft." Lin Puqing was also surprised, but she didn't think much about it at this time, she just sighed that Lin Yizhe had a deep affection for Chen Wan, "Kunyu is a good boy with a heart, and Wan'er will be blessed in the future." β
"Madame, are you talking about the old man's 'gentleman's distant cooking'?" Shen Baozhen looked at Lin Puqing and said, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled.
"Kunyu is talented and intelligent, and he has always been very careful in doing things on weekdays, and he can pay attention to small things like this, which is rare." Shen Baozhen thought for a while and said, "However, everything is too much, and the young man's temperament, if he stays here for a long time, it will not be good." β
"Then the old man will be diligent in admonishing him!" Lin Puqing said.

Shen Mansion, Shen Baozhen's study.
Lin Yizhe stood there, looking at Shen Baozhen, who was standing in front of the bookshelf in civilian clothes, and felt apprehensive in his heart.
He didn't know why Shen Baozhen called him to the study early in the morning.
Lin Yizhe's eyes quickly scanned the study, Shen Baozhen's study was not bigger than his own, and the furnishings were a little too simple, such as the smoker, inkstone, and other study utensils were all porcelain, not like his own room was furnished with exquisite jade.
Moreover, there are many more books in Shen Baozhen's study than in his own study.
Since the Song Dynasty in China, the study room has been one of the most important places for literati and scholars, and the way of hospitality, the highest courtesy, is not to go to the high-end dining and entertainment venues to have a carnival and drink as people in later generations often do, but to invite them into the study to chat. In this day and age, having a meal is actually a vulgar and unbearable act.
Shen Baozhen summoned himself to the study, and what he wanted to say to himself must be very important words, which was because Lin Yizhe had been worried in his heart.
Oh, yes! It's only been a few days since I crossed over, and if you're not careful, you'll have to make a big mistake!
"Sit down." Shen Baozhen glanced at Lin Yizhe, who was a little restrained, and said gently, then turned his back and took a book from the shelf.
"Uncle Xie." Lin Yizhe answered and sat down on a wooden chair.
Lin Yizhe saw a large plate of incense balls that he had "invented" on the mahogany table - "incense balls" were actually made up by his own perfunctory wife, and its name in later generations was called "grass cake", and Taiwan called "mochi", which is a kind of delicate small snack popular in Chinese mainland, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and other places. Its outer skin is made of glutinous rice, sugar and other raw materials, with a variety of different fillings, exquisite and beautiful appearance, unique taste. Because the glutinous rice skin is fragrant and fragrant, the filling is sweet but not greasy, and the appearance is crystal clear, elegant and generous, so it is extremely popular.
The reason why he made this thing is because he often went to a Japanese restaurant owned by a friend, where he learned from the chefs. In fact, he learned to make more delicious dishes and dim sum.
Looking at these incense balls, Lin Yizhe's heart couldn't help but rise with a strong longing for his previous life.
I don't have a chance to make these delicious foods for Zhao Yuetong by myself......
"I haven't seen you make this snack before, who did you learn it from?" Shen Baozhen's words pulled him back from his stunned emotion, and made him understand that he would never be able to return to the original era.
Let's try to find a way to get a good foothold in this era!
"Back to my uncle, my nephew saw it by chance in a book. The nephew just added a few more flavors of food according to the method in the book. Lin Yizhe replied respectfully.
"Yes, yes, this snack you made is indeed delicious. Old people like me and your aunt don't have very good teeth, and it's the most practical thing to eat. Shen Baozhen said, put down the book in his hand, paced to the table, took a piece of incense, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"Uncle likes it, and my nephew will do more to honor my uncle and aunt in the future." Lin Yizhe said, "Although this thing is delicious, it is too greasy and soft, so you need to chew it slowly, and you must not eat it fast to prevent choking." β
His words came completely from a piece of the city, Shen Baozhen listened to it very usefully, he ate another incense ball, brushed his hands, and said to Lin Yizhe: "You are so attentive to such a small thing, very good." However, a good man must be mindful of the world, and must not indulge in such small things as to neglect his studies. β
Lin Yizhe was sweating slightly when he heard this, he knew that Shen Baozhen was taking this opportunity to warn himself not to indulge too much in the pleasure of the newlywed Yan'er boudoir, he secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, too, he was a little too much with his little wife these days. Not to mention, the first day of the round room alone made Chen Wan unable to get up and walk the next morning, so that the people in the house privately talked about him, the bridegroom, who was drunk and unconscious for three days and went to the ghost gate to turn around, and came back so violently, if he was not drunk, he would not be ......
In this era when the science of "preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires" is prevalent, you should still be careful.
"My nephew remembers my uncle's teachings." Lin Yizhe hurriedly got up and said.
"You can accompany Wan'er more these days, and when the second batch of French foreigners arrives, you and I will not be idle." Shen Baozhen beckoned and motioned for him to come closer, "The construction of this steamship is complicated and detailed, and it must not be taken lightly. You are also interested in Western studies, so you may wish to read more books on Western studies in the future. β
Shen Baozhen said, handed the book in his hand to Lin Yizhe, and Lin Yizhe took it with both hands. It was a Western-style book in hard leather packaging, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he glanced at the title of the book, which was a line of French.
Lin Yizhe is fluent in English and French, which are not new to him, but Shen Baozhen also understands French, which really amazes him.
"I don't know the French language, just look at the pictures." Shen Baozhen said, "But I haven't seen these pictures before, and after seeing them, it's also very helpful." β
Lin Yizhe knew from the title of the book that this book is a primer on the introduction of ship types, which contains the drawings of ships from all over the world today, and some are also equipped with detailed line diagrams.
"If we talk about the rigor of study, the West is no different from our country." Of course, Shen Baozhen didn't know that the "nephew" in front of him was actually proficient in French, so he pointed to the line drawing and said to Lin Yizhe, "In terms of the subtlety and meticulousness of the drawing of this ship, it is very comparable." β
"What my uncle said is very true," Lin Yizhe himself is actually a lover of military history, especially keen on modern Chinese naval history, and the ship line map is not a new thing for him, but he does not know whether his "predecessor" is interested in Western studies, and he is afraid that he will miss the horse's feet, so he does not dare to say more, "Like this blessed ship shape, it has been in ancient times, but the size of the historical records is unknown, and the legends are also incomplete. β
"You are proficient in poetry and books, although you have made great achievements, but you must not be complacent and stop moving, you must know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there is no end to learning. In the future, Western learning must be of great use, and it is necessary to study it diligently as early as possible. Shen Baozhen saw Lin Yizhe's slightly fearful look in his respect, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful for the harsh reprimand he had given him that day, "Last time I tried it, if it wasn't for my uncle, you would have been a Huiyuan." However, you don't have to worry too much about this one-two dispute. You are talented, diligent and hardworking, just like your father Jing Fenggong, he will inevitably go to high school in the palace exam. β
Lin Yizhe felt a chill down his spine when he heard this, he never thought that his "predecessor" would be such an identity!
Not only is he from a prominent background, he is the son of Lin Ruzhou, the eldest son of Lin Zexu, and he is also the top three in the Fujian Provincial Capital Examination (listen to Shen Baozhen's words, either second or third)!
After crossing, the starting point is too "high", which doesn't seem to be a good thing!
He, a modern psychological counselor who doesn't know anything about Baguwen, will have to take the high school entrance examination in the future, where can this start!
Lin Yizhe raised his head with some trepidation, and just happened to meet Shen Baozhen's gaze.
Seeing that Shen Baozhen's eyes were full of love, Lin Yizhe's heart was hot.
"My uncle's teachings, my nephew's heart, don't dare to forget." Lin Yizhe said, "My nephew wants to start by being familiar with English and French. Nowadays, Western learning is gradually going east, there are still few domestic translations, and there are inevitably errors and omissions in translation, if you can understand the Western Chinese language and directly study its books, it is easier to achieve success. β
The reason why he said this was that he wanted to give Shen Baozhen a "surprise" in the future - it was not difficult for him to understand English and French at all.
"What you said is that when Lin Wenzhong was alive, there was no end to learning. In fact, not only do you have to learn, but I also have to learn from scratch. I am now suffering from the fact that I cannot understand the language, and I have a feeling that I have no idea how to start with the affairs of the Harbour Master. There are very few relevant translations in China, so I have already submitted a request to the General Administration to translate and distribute Western books from the Tongwen Museum for consultation. Shen Baozhen was quite pleased to hear Lin Yizhe's words, "However, the translation is not the original work after all, if there is a mistranslation, ambiguity and omission, it is inevitable, if you understand the language of another country, it is convenient to study it yourself." It would be great if you could become proficient in Spanish Chinese in the future. β
