Chapter 4 Fuyi Town
The same word, but with fewer strokes, easier to write and easier to recognize, easier to learn and faster, so it is called simplified Chinese. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Oh?" Dong Yun was even more puzzled.
Liu Yong saw Dong Yun's blank face, so he said, "That's it." Let me write a word. He picked up a branch and wrote the traditional character "Liu" on the ground.
"It seems to be the character Liu in the eldest brother's name. Hee-hee! Big brother, I don't recognize a few words, but I've seen this word a lot. ”
Liu Yong nodded, "This is the character Liu you wrote." In our place, it was written like this......" As he spoke, he wrote a simplified character "Liu" next to it.
"It's very different." Dong Yun's eyes widened, her mouth opened slightly, and she said in surprise, "There are a lot of strokes missing." For those of us who can't write, it's much easier to learn this. ”
"yes. We also have a lot of people there who can't read. In order to allow more people to learn to read and write faster, a smart person came up with a way to delete the words with many strokes, so that people could learn much easier. Liu Yong thought that although there are so many controversies about simplified characters, the characters are easier to write, easier to recognize, and more popular with the public. New China was able to eradicate most of the illiteracy so quickly, and the implementation of simplified Chinese characters has indeed contributed to it.
"Hee-hee! Interesting. Dong Yun laughed softly, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Does the eldest brother still plan to go somewhere else?" ”
"Well, I'm going to Xuzhou." Liu Yong said that he came out to travel, so he had to continue to say this.
"But...... Otherwise, the eldest brother should bring this pendant with him. Dong Yun said that he was going to return the piece of jade to Liu Yong.
Liu Yong feigned anger and said: "Yun'er, this is something that the eldest brother gave you, how can there be any reason to take it back." ”
Dong Yun said: "Xuzhou is so far away, how can I get it if my eldest brother doesn't have any money?" Besides, will you wear this dress to Xuzhou? And your hair, you have to cover it to do it, otherwise don't say that it is those big cities in Xuzhou, and even the villagers in the small county town of Fuyi may not dare to take care of you. Why don't you do this, I still have some skins at home, let's go to the city and sell the skins to my eldest brother to buy a set of clothes, and then prepare some coils. ”
Liu Yong knew Dong Yun's family background, and said busily: "No need. Yun'er, I have my own way. "Actually, he has no way, just take one step at a time.
"Big brother, what are you talking about! You are penniless, what can you do. Since you recognize me as a sister, you have to listen to me this time. Dong Yun frowned and said without question. Liu Yong's lips were open, but he couldn't make a sound, and his heart was warm.
Dong Yun looked up at the sky and said, "Big brother, it's cold in the mountains, why don't we go out first?" ”
Liu Yong nodded. The two got up, shoveled snow to extinguish the fire, Dong Yun wrapped the remaining meat with oiled paper, put a bow and arrow on his back, and was about to pick up the wolf skin, but Liu Yong had already picked it up and put it on his shoulder. Dong Yun hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab it and said, "Big brother, this is too dirty, let's do it with me." ”
Liu Yong waved his hand and said: "In terms of age, I am a brother, and you are a sister; In terms of gender, I am a man and you are a woman, so naturally I came. Besides, my clothes are torn, and I'm warmer in wolf skin. Yun'er won't fight with me anymore. ”
Dong Yun's heart warmed and said, "Thank you, big brother." Then I'll lead the way. "Took Liu Yong left and right, up and down in the forest, and walked for about an hour, and the two of them went out of the mountains and forests.
Dong Yun pointed to the small village under the mountain and said, "Big brother, that's my home." I'm going to go home and get some things first, do you want my eldest brother to come with me to the house to sit down? ”
Liu Yong smiled: "It's still not necessary." Yun'er, look at my dress, people have to explain it for a long time after seeing it. ”
Dong Yun also smiled: "Okay then." Big brother will wait here for a while, I'll go home and clean up, and I'll bring some herbs into the city, and I'll come in a while. Without waiting for Liu Yong to answer, Dong Yun turned his head and ran towards the village, shouting as he ran, "Big brother, it'll be fine for a while." ”
Sure enough, after a while, Dong Yun ran over with a basket on his back, panting and said, "Big brother has been waiting for a long time, right?" As he spoke, he wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead with his hands.
"Nope. Yun'er is tired, let's take a break. ”
"No, I have to hurry. Big brother, put the wolf skin in. Dong Yun pointed to the back basket behind him.
"Okay." Liu Yong replied, pulled down the wolf skin on his body, rolled it into a roll, stuffed it into the back basket, hooked both hands, took the back basket off Dong Yun's back, and carried it on his back.
Dong Yun was taken aback, and hurriedly came to pull, "Big brother, what are you doing?" ”
Liu Yong stretched out his hand to stop Dong Yun and said, "Yun'er, with the eldest brother here, I won't let you do dirty work." Otherwise, I'll not be able to go. Besides, this one isn't heavy. As he spoke, he jumped and signaled that it was easy to memorize.
Dong Yun was moved, sighed faintly, and said, "Thank you, big brother." ”
"Alright. Let's hit the road, shall we? ”
"Hmmm! We've got to get out of here, I'm afraid we won't be able to get back. ”
"Yun'er, is it far to the city?"
"It's more than thirty miles away."
"So far?" Liu Yong was a little surprised, he didn't seem to have come such a long way.
"Big brother hasn't come this far, has he?" Dong Yun was a little worried, "But we don't have a carriage here......
"It's fine. Yun'er can walk, and I can walk too. Liu Yong interrupted Dong Yun's words.
Dong Yun grinned, blinked his eyes, and said, "We countrymen are used to it. ”
"I've been out for so long, and it's not like I haven't traveled far." Liu Yong gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, let's compare." "So saying, let's go first. Dong Yun smiled lightly, greeted him, and rushed past Liu Yong in a few steps to lead the way. Dong Yunbing is smart, kind and considerate, and knows that Liu Yong is impatient to walk for a long time, so she doesn't walk fast, otherwise Liu Yong would have been unable to bear it.
"It's boring to walk this long way. Yun'er, why don't we tell a story. I'll talk about one, and you will talk about one, and it will be a lot easier. ”
Dong Yun said embarrassedly: "Big brother, I don't know how to tell stories." I'll just listen to you. ”
Liu Yong smiled: "Why don't you tell me about what interesting things have happened in these days." ”
Dong Yun thought for a while and said, "Okay." However, I don't know much, so let's talk more about it. ”
"That's good. What to talk about first? Well, let's tell a joke first, right? Liu Yong racked his brains and thought for a while, and then he remembered an ancient joke that was quite passable, so he said, "One day, a teacher is going to cross the river by boat. When there was nothing to do, the boatman began to talk to Mr. Teach. Then the boatman asked Mr. Teach, "Sir, what are you?" The teacher replied, "I am a dog." The boatman was stunned for a moment, and then asked, what month is the gentleman? Mr. Teaching said, I am from the New Year. Then the boatman said with emotion, "Sir, I am also a dog, but in December." It seems that God is really fair, Mr. is a dog's head, so it is called (teaching) for a lifetime, and I am a dog's tail, so I can only shake it for a lifetime. ”
Dong Yun said with a smile: "It's just that you readers will arrange people." ”
Liu Yong also smiled: "Okay, it's your turn." ”
"I haven't told you. Otherwise, I'll answer whatever you ask. ”
"Okay, tell my eldest brother about Fuyi, and what big things have happened these days."
So, Dong Yun spoke...... It turned out that in the first year of Emperor Xingping of the Han Dynasty (194 AD), Yuan Shu promised to let Sun Ce attack Lujiang, saying that he would recommend you to be the Taishou after the defeat. But after Sun Ce really defeated Lujiang, Yuan Shu reversed himself and appointed his old subordinate Liu Xun as the Taishou of Lujiang. Sun Ce was dissatisfied, so he had the intention of leaving, so he pressed the jade seal of the country to Yuan Shu and borrowed 3,000 soldiers and horses from him to go to Jiangdong for development. In the first year of Emperor Jian'an of the Han Dynasty (196 AD), Sun Ce became more and more powerful with the assistance of Zhou Yu and others, and defeated Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou in Qu'a, and also subdued Liu Xuan's general Tai Shici and most of the soldiers.
Although Fuyi belongs to the Lujiang River, it is very far away from Shu County, the seat of Lujiang County, and it is much closer to Jiangxia under the rule of Liu Biao and guarded by Huang Zu. Over the years, there have been frequent wars in Jiangdong and Xuzhou, and the people are struggling to make a living, but Fuyi is extremely lucky, far away from the war, the people's hearts are stable, and their lives are relatively comfortable. It's just that refugees from all over the country have been pouring in recently, and there are more and more thieves.
No matter how many situations Dong Yun didn't know, he was the only one to talk about Liu Yong. Fortunately, Liu Yong has a lot of stories in his belly, and he picked up "Nie Xiaoqian" in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai" and told it. This kind of story is generally liked by girls, both love and ghosts, the plot twists and turns but the ending is very satisfying, plus Liu Yong is quite good at telling stories, both the speed and intonation are very good, where to suppress, where to promote, where to pause, who should use what tone and tone, Dong Yun listened with interest, a moment of nervousness, a moment of relaxation, a moment of heartbreak, a moment of smile, just want to have no end to this road, can listen to it all the time.
"It's so good, Xiaoqian is really lucky." Dong Yun was still unsatisfied, and she was both emotional and longing, "Big brother, you can tell Yun'er one more, I really like to hear you tell stories." ”
The two walked and chatted, but they didn't feel too tired, unconsciously, Liu Yong only felt that the people around him gradually increased, and after walking forward for a while, he saw a city gate, and the city gate was engraved with two big characters "Fuyi" in the middle. However, the city walls were broken and low, the gates were not strong, and there were no defenders, so it was really a very small city.
When I entered the city, I found that although Fuyi was small, there were several streets, shops, pawnshops, tea shops, restaurants, etc. There are a lot of pedestrians on the road, and there are many well-dressed and energetic, ragged and sighing, and I feel that there are two extremes here.
In front of a tea shop, Dong Yun ordered a pot of tea, invited Liu Yong to sit down, took the basket from his back, and then pointed to the opposite side and said, "Big brother, you can drink tea here for a while first." I'll come wherever I go. ”
Liu Yong raised his eyes and saw that it was a leather goods store, so he asked, "Yun'er, I'll go with you." ”
Dong Yun smiled: "It's all done anywhere else, but it's not okay there." Those who are not accustomed to it will suffer a great sin if they go inside. Big brother, you can sit here for a while, and I'll come out in a while. ”
As soon as Dong Yun left, Liu Yong felt that he had nothing to do, looked around, and saw a pawnshop not far from the leather store.
