Chapter Seventy-Five: Cai Yan Writes a Book

Liu Yong smiled: "This is called a chair." "Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Then he explained in detail to the carpenter what needed to be paid attention to in the production process, and told him to go back and make it immediately. On the second day, the carpenter sent the things, and Liu Yong carefully stroked them on the armrest, the carpenter's craftsmanship was really good, there were no spikes, and the backrest was made into an arc as Liu Yong designed, just like the bend of a person's back. Liu Yong sat up happily, suddenly felt comfortable, and smiled at the carpenter: "Has the master ever tried?" Feeling good? ”

The carpenter said, "This is something we can use, as long as the son is satisfied, we will be content." ”

Liu Yong smiled: "The master still doesn't know who Liu Yong is, right?" Come, please try, this is also your hard work. ”

At that time, the status of the craftsman was quite low, how could he have heard such kind and polite words, the carpenter's heart was moved and frightened, his hands stretched out and shook, and he repeatedly excused himself, saying "I don't dare".

Liu Yong stepped forward, couldn't help but say, pushed the carpenter to the chair and sat down. The man had never been treated with such courtesy, and sat down trembling with tears in his eyes.

Liu Yong patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "It's okay." The master sat down for a while, firstly, to feel what he had made, and secondly, to find out what else needed to be improved. ”

The carpenter heard that Liu Yong was reasonable, so he calmed down and experienced it carefully.

After a while, Liu Yong smiled and asked, "If the master has any opinions, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

The carpenter grinned and said, "Childe, we think your chair is very good, and it won't be as tired as those rich people sit on." But there are two things, I think it would be better to change them. ”

"Please." Liu Yong encouraged.

"One is that this board is too hard, and if you sit for a long time, your ass will not be able to stand it. Childe is not strange, I am a rough person, I don't know how to say the word butt elegantly. ”

Liu Yong laughed and said, "It's okay, just talk about the butt." I also thought of the layer you mentioned, and I have asked someone to make a cushion, and I can solve it by putting it on it. What about the second point? ”

The carpenter was even more impressed, and replied, "I think that this seat should not be flat, but should be a little sunken, and it would be more comfortable to wrap this part of the buttocks." ”

Liu Yong cocked his thumb and boasted: "Good idea, the troublesome master will make one for me according to this idea." This is your salary. Liu Yong handed over a piece of silver.

"Childe, it wouldn't be so much." The carpenter did not dare to stretch out his hand.

"I'm not here to give you a handout. First, the master's skills are exquisite, and second, he has proposed a good way to improve, which money cannot buy. Liu Yong grabbed the master's hand, stuffed the silver into his palm, and said with a smile: "Don't worry." ”

The carpenter left with a thousand thanks, but Liu Yong felt uneasy, why is it inferior to others to rely on labor to eat, science and technology are the primary productive forces, and they are the most important force to promote social development! But who can realize it when they sit in high positions?

Liu Yong moved a chair to Cai Wenji's residence with a heavy heart, and the two little girls were talking in a low voice in the courtyard, seeing that Liu Yong just wanted to say hello, Liu Yong waved his hand lightly, called the two over, and asked, "When did Miss write?" ”

Zijin replied, "About half an hour." ”

Liu Yong nodded and said, "Then wait a while." ”

Zipei smiled: "What did Childe send to Miss again?" As he spoke, he pointed to the chair with his little hand.

Liu Yong smiled: "You'll know later." ”

"Humph! I'm not unfamiliar with it. The two little girls have long been familiar with Liu Yong and know him as a person, so not only are they not afraid of him, but sometimes they dare to joke.

The three of them chatted for a while, only to hear the light sound in the room, Cai Wenji knocked on her legs, stretched her waist, stood up, and suddenly found that Liu Yong was looking at herself with a smile, Cai Wenji blushed, and scolded with a smile: "Two little hooves, the son will not report when he comes." ”

Zijin replied with a smile: "It's the son who doesn't let the maid report." ”

Cai Wenji pointed to the chair next to Liu Yong and asked, "Liu Gongzi, what are you?" ”

Liu Yong smiled: "Miss will know what it is if you try it." As he spoke, he took the chair and put it next to a slightly higher table in the room, and then led Cai Wenji over and sat down.

Cai Wenji was surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "The slave family has seen a kind of stool in Hudi, which is very convenient, but I didn't expect that Gongzi is more practical." What's the name of this? ”

"It's called a chair. Later, I will send a cushion over, and then the young lady will not be so tired from sitting on it and writing. ”

Cai Wenji was even more moved and said, "The son takes care of him so thoroughly, Cai Yan is grateful. ”

"Miss is polite. What Miss does is for the benefit of thousands of generations, and she works hard day and night, and Liu Yong can do something for Miss as she should. ”

Zipei interjected on the side: "You two don't talk like this, we don't understand." Childe wants to help my young lady share the burden, why don't you send more delicious snacks, the young lady is cute and eats. ”

Cai Wenji was ashamed and said, "Little hooves, you like to eat, pull me up." ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Since you sisters like to eat, then I will send more." ”

"You can't do it again." Zijin is not willing to be lonely.

"Got it." Liu Yong smiled, "You two have been serving here for a long time, let's go play in the garden for a while, and I'll talk to your young lady." The two girls were so young that they jumped up and ran away with joy on their faces after hearing this.

Liu Yong turned his head to Cai Wenji and said, "Miss doesn't need to be so obsessed with writing silently, you still have to pay attention to your body bones." ”

Cai Wenji sighed: "The slave family is worried that they will forget a lot after a long time. ”

"Sitting there for a long time and copying is not only bad for your eyes, but also easy to get sick. It is recommended that the lady only need to write four hours a day. And every hour of writing, you have to get up and rest for a while, take a walk, look into the distance, and look at the green trees, which is very good for the body and eyes. ”

Cai Wenji heard what Liu Yong said reasonably, so she said: "Although what Gongzi said is reasonable, it's just that 'life is as fleeting as a white horse', and the concubine's memory in body and mind is limited, so she has to cherish it more." ”

Liu Yong shook his head and said disapprerovingly: "Liu Yong thinks that Miss's words are very wrong. Cai Wenji was stunned.

Cai Wenji didn't expect that she would say that she would cherish her time more, but Liu Yong said that she was doing something wrong, she was surprised and suspicious, and hurriedly asked the reason. Liu Yong explained: "As the saying goes, 'If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools'......"

Cai Wenji pursed her mouth and said coquettishly: "What is the common saying, this sentence is from the Analects? Wei Linggong" is the master's reply when Zigong asked Ren. ”

Liu Yong said seriously: "I haven't read many classics well, and it's good to remember such a sentence." It's okay if Miss doesn't boast a few words, so it is very undesirable to hit a diligent and knowledge-seeking student. ”

Cai Wenji saw Liu Yong talking nonsense without skin and face, and couldn't help laughing, and it took a long time before she said, "Yes." You use it very well, so can you explain to the teacher what this sentence means? ”

Liu Yong pretended to say, "Yes, teacher." The meaning of this sentence is that craftsmen should prepare and polish their tools before work, so that they can be handy and get twice the result with half the effort when they really do things. Zi said, 'sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter', the same is true. ”

Cai Wenji couldn't help it even more, stroked her mouth and giggled, and said angrily: "Don't make fun of the saint." ”

Liu Yong smiled: "Obey." It's just that Liu Yong doesn't say so, how can Miss be so relaxed and happy. ”

Cai Wenji was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that Liu Yong's move was actually to relax herself and relieve the tiredness in her heart, and she couldn't help but be grateful and happy. After a moment of silence, Cai Wenji asked: "Gongzi quoted these two sentences to say that everything must be prepared first, but what does this have to do with the concubine's book?" ”

Liu Yong sighed, what a scholar, three sentences do not leave the bank, his heart is in vain, so he hurriedly said: "Why is it irrelevant." Do you think that writing a book only requires paper, pencils, bamboo slips, etc.? Wrong, big mistake! The best part? It's the body, it's the health. "People are iron, rice is steel, don't eat hungry for a day", without a strong body, even if you can write, how much can you write every day, how much can you write in a month? ”

Cai Wenji was silent when she heard this, although this person's speech was cheesy, but it was very reasonable, only to hear Liu Yong still say excitedly, "'The body is the capital of the revolution', only with a good body can you do things and do things well." If you are so weak that even the wind can blow it away, even if you are full of wealth and talent, what can you do? ”

Cai Wenji scolded with a smile: "You can only run away in the wind." ”

Liu Yong also smiled: "Does Miss think Liu Yong is reasonable? ”

Cai Wenji nodded and said, "The little woman has read so many poetry books, but she doesn't understand such a simple truth. ”

"Miss doesn't know." Liu Yong said with a straight face, "You are worried about the lack of time, and you have forgotten what you remember in your heart, sorry for Cai Gong and sorry for your ancestors." ”

"Thank you, Childe, the concubine is exactly like this." Cai Wenji said gratefully.

"I have an idea."

"Please tell me quickly." Cai Wenji was ecstatic in her heart, holding Liu Yong's hand and shaking it, with excitement on her face.

Liu Yong said with a smile: "You might as well write out the ones that you don't remember very well, or the rare books first, and then write the others." ”

Cai Wenji scolded with a smile: "What kind of brilliant idea should I have, am I writing like this now?" ”

Liu Yong grinned but said no more, Cai Wenji was slightly stunned, and immediately understood that in fact, this was all Liu Yong's move to relax his mood, and he couldn't help but be even more moved.

"The combination of work and rest can get twice the result with half the effort." Liu Yong added, "After writing for a while, you can swing, play games, and relax." I have one more request. ”

"Request? Childe, please speak. ”

"I'm a half-ass." Cai Wenji was stunned, and Liu Yong explained, "It seems that he is proficient in everything, but in fact, everything is sparse." Cai Wenji heard him say something interesting, and couldn't help but laugh, only to hear Liu Yong say again: "I'm not from the Central Plains, so I want to learn some Confucian classics from Miss, and I hope Miss will never refuse." ”

"Childe is serious." Although Cai Wenji was humble in her mouth, she was very happy in her heart. She is very knowledgeable, even most men in the world are inferior, but unfortunately because she is a daughter, she can't do anything, and there is nothing more angry in this life than this. Coincidentally, Liu Yong sincerely begged for each other, but once she got her wish, the little woman's mentality was overjoyed.

At this time, Liu Yong's relatives came in with Song Jiu and announced: "Childe, Mr. Bo Ji sent someone to invite, saying that there is an important guest to visit, and he wants to see Childe by name, and now he is serving tea in the house." ”
