Chapter Ninety-Seven: Guo Jia and Yang Xiuqi appeared
Yang Xiu didn't want to go home, he was currently the youngest student of Yanzhao Academy, and he was very famous among the students. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After all, in the age of drooping, among the students of Wuyang, it is particularly prominent, the key is what Mr. taught, he understands very quickly, that is, Guo Jia, who entered the academy in his early childhood years, cannot compare.
Of course, Guo Jia doesn't care, he is just interested in military affairs, and he can dabble in other Confucian subjects a little.
The academy is closed, and it is about to be the New Year, except for students who are particularly far away, they will generally go home.
However, despite his young age, Yang Xiu felt a very strange atmosphere in the family.
He is the eldest grandson of the Hongnong Yang family, and his biological mother is Yuan Yu, the eldest daughter of Yuan Shuyan, and his status in the family is really speechless.
As long as there are people, there are rivers and lakes, not to mention a big family like the Hongnong Yang family that plays a pivotal role in the Han Dynasty?
The internal power is tilted, and sometimes Yang Ci, as the patriarch, is a little unable to suppress it, and there is no way, because he broke the rules and let his eldest son Yang Biao marry Yuan Shu's daughter.
In the eyes of the Yang family, it is obvious that the head of the family is slapping the Yang family in the face, admitting that his family is not as good as the Yuan family.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Yang Xiu to appear in Luoyang, but in the old family study of Hongnong. Yang Ci was very worried that his eldest grandson was killed by the clansmen, and he couldn't find a place to reason.
This kind of strange atmosphere, Yang Xiu has long felt it despite his young age. He was very afraid, if he was useless, whether it was his grandfather or his family, he would not hesitate to abandon him.
So in the capital, he always behaved himself, and he was even called a little prodigy, and even many people compared him with Zhao Yun.
The Spring Festival in ancient times, especially in the third dynasty of the Xia and Shang dynasties, was not necessarily on the first day of the first lunar month due to the change of the calendar. It was not until the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the government stipulated that the first day of the first lunar month was the first day of the year, and the date of the Spring Festival was fixed.
In the earliest understanding of the ancients, the Spring Festival was not an auspicious day!
The first day of the first month, the second day of February, and the third day of March...... Until the ninth day of the ninth month of September, according to the ancient people's view, this is the day of the sun in the sun, and it is a disastrous day.
But no matter how bad the days are, you have to live, this is the same as bamboo, when you encounter a festival - where the bamboo is smooth and smooth, and the place where the festival is pimple, so this kind of day is called a festival, the so-called Spring Festival, is the most unlucky day in spring!
Because the Spring Festival is unlucky and not good, but this day still has to be lived, so people have come up with various ways to celebrate the festival: exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits, pray for blessings and welcome auspiciousness. Over time, various customs for the Spring Festival have been formed.
From the pre-Qin, Han and Wei dynasties, the evolution of Spring Festival customs is very clear, that is, the transformation from ghost deification to humanization.
With the deepening of people's understanding of nature and the improvement of their ability to change the world, this custom has changed from witchcraft to rituals, and from entertaining gods to entertaining people.
The solemn, solemn and even mysterious atmosphere in the early days began to fade, and the Spring Festival became more and more peaceful, tranquil and pleasant.
The most important way to celebrate the New Year in the Han Dynasty is to worship the heavens and ancestors, as well as official agricultural celebrations, hoping to have a good harvest of grains throughout the year.
The official Chinese New Year ritual is a group worship ceremony, and officials from all over the country will go to Luoyang to congratulate the Son of Heaven, and light firecrackers, and the bamboo will be burned to crackle, so that the residents of the capital will know that the New Year is coming.
The main New Year's activities in the Han Dynasty were carried out by the government, and the Chinese founded the country on agriculture, and the seeds were sown from the spring beginning of the new year of this year, so the emperor generally went down to the fields and ploughed and sowed the seeds with the peasants.
Because ninety percent of the people are farmers, farmers from all over the country will gather together to eat together, just like today's reunion dinner, as long as the capital is finished after the people can light firecrackers.
As Yang Ci's eldest grandson, his grandfather and father definitely don't have time to go home to reunite with their relatives, Yang Xiu must show up on the occasion of worshipping ancestors, otherwise he will be accused of being unfilial, which can make the spitting star drown.
Relatively speaking, Guo Jia's status in the Guo family in Yingchuan is dispensable, but he also has to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, even Guo Tu, who is Yuan Shao's staff, will also rush back.
The age difference between the two of them is not much, from the beginning of the-for-tat, let's use resistance, after all, Yang Xiu may have wanted to attract the attention of the family at first, and later formed a proud and arrogant character, taking other people's praise seriously.
Today's Yanzhao Academy, Zhao Nianzhen, Guo Jia, and Yang Xiu are a proper iron triangle.
When encountering things, it was Guo Jia who came up with the idea, even if there were classmates with dancing spoons, zhixue, dancing elephants, weak crowns, and even occasional students who could still be seen in their own years, these people were often discouraged under Guo Fengxiao's innate strategy.
Resolved by force? I'm sorry, although Zhao Nianzhen is only a year of dancing spoons, even the students who study military affairs are not his opponents. Of course, those people mainly study military classics, not come here to practice martial arts.
Seeing that the three elementary schools are about to be separated this year, Zhao Nianzhen can be said to be a real snake, the former uncle and uncle took care of him very much, and volunteered to take the two of them to the city to rub a meal, and then talked in the tea shop, and saw this scene.
"What are you?" The little guy yelled at Guo Jia, his nose was crooked: "Mao hasn't grown up, dare to come here to take care of the affairs of the fifth son?" ”
"Fifth son, what kind of anger is being sprinkled on me." Zhao Si was afraid of losing three snacks, after all, they also brought a pair of followers, and the two people standing next to him, looking tall and strong, were estimated to be about the same in their heyday.
The fifth prince didn't speak, he was carefully looking at the child who suddenly appeared. A person who can come out at such a young age must not be simple, he is not a daredevil.
With the rise of the Zhao family, the status of the people of the Zhao family, whether they are direct or branched, has risen.
Back then, his father Zhao Jue was originally just an inconspicuous person in the branch, and followed Zhao Zhong, the second master of Mengshan Township, to go south and north, and because of his lush branches and leaves, he had eight sons, and was deeply used by the second master.
The flowers are not red for a hundred days, and seeing that Zhao Jue is over the age of six, he is about to retire from the position of steward.
Eight brothers, except for the old seven and eight who are not yet adults, the rest began to secretly exert their efforts, striving to get the support of their father, and they could get a satisfactory job with a few kind words on the second master's side.
Unlike the other seven brothers, the fifth brother Zhao Jiao saw hope from his father's career, even if he fought for that position now, what chance would he have in the future? It's better to find more women and give birth to the most heirs of the Zhao family.
Everything should pay attention to a question of probability, you are a son, and it is impossible to guarantee that he will become a talent.
But what about ten? That's different, there is always one or a few that will stand out.
For Zhao Si, Zhao Jiaozhen didn't pay attention to it, because he was originally Zhao Sanye's subordinate, but unfortunately Uncle Zhao died in battle at the foot of Helan Mountain, and people went to tea to cool down, Uncle Zhao Meng arranged things for all the personnel, and opening a tea shop for him was considered benevolent and righteous.
Seeing the three children in front of him, Zhao Jiao said that he couldn't understand it, he was not as frizzy as his subordinates, and he had been observing.
There are all kinds of people in the tea shop, except for Zhao Nianzhen and the others, the rest of the youngest are all in their twenties.
Although Guo Jia accepted a shop from Zhao Yun to do some small business, he was still thrifty and tried to pay back the money as soon as possible. Even if Zhao Yun doesn't care, even if Guo Jia is young, he won't take advantage. The clothes on his body are very ordinary.
Zhao Nianzhen became an orphan, and his food and clothing were all taken care of by the long house.
It is true that Zhao Yinlong is Zhao Meng's former brother, this child is not likable, and Zhao Zhang's family has no time to ask in person. Besides, the Zhao family has always been very strict with their juniors, and their clothes are very ordinary.
Only Yang Xiu is from the Hongnong Yang family, and even if the clothes are not silk and satin, they look of excellent texture.
"Dare to ask who the three little sons are?" Zhao Jiao's eyes narrowed, and his attention was more focused on Yang Xiu.
"As the so-called road is uneven, what does it have to do with who we are?" Guo Jia was a little annoyed, they were chatting there just now, and they were disturbed by this stubble.
As the prestige of the Zhao family became better day by day, Zhao Jiao had contacts with many children of small and medium-sized families, and he finally knew that only the offspring born to handsome women would be handsome.
There are no less than fifty bright and dark women in the family, and the elite route currently taken is not pretty, on the contrary, good-looking women try their best to get their hands on them.
Zhao Jiao glanced greedily at the little girl, who had just grown up, thirteen or fourteen years old.
He sighed: "Tell me where you come from, if you have a friendship with each other, the suburbs will also sell you a face." ”
"I've disappointed you," Guo Jia waved his hand: "Nianzhen and I don't have a father, Dezu's home is in Hongnong, and we must have nothing to do with you, we are reasoning." ”
"That's it," Yang Xiu twitched the corners of his mouth: "Keep saying that people call you the fifth son, and you only give one gold for buying a woman, and you are embarrassed to pretend to be big in front of us." In broad daylight, do you want to rob? ”
Hongnong? True? Dezu? Haven't heard of it.
Zhao Jiao was impatient, and his eyelids didn't look over there: "Throw it out!" (To be continued.) )
