Zhang's mother Lu Shi heard Zhang Yuan say that he had to live in Huiji Wang's house in March, and she was a little unhappy, her son had never left her when he grew up so big, and said: "My son is used to living at home, and I am afraid of many inconveniences when I go to someone else's house." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Mother doesn't have to worry, my son can take care of himself, he will go home every three or five days, and Mr. Yan'an's house is not far away, but it is only seven or eight miles." ”

Zhang's mother Lu also knew that her son's studies were important, so she didn't say more, and helped her son pack up his clothes and stationery that night, and the next morning he ordered Shi Shuang to pick up, and sent Zhang Yuan to Huiji Wang Siren's mansion, so that Xiao Xi Nu Wuling also went to wait for the young master, and originally planned to call a rattan sedan chair to send Zhang Yuan, but Zhang Yuan refused, saying that he wanted to walk.

Zhang's mother Lu Shi sent it to the bamboo fence gate, and told her son that he must come back on the fifth day of the first month, and told him that it was cold in the morning and evening, and that he should not read too late to pay more attention to his eyes, and he was worried that his son was not used to the food of the Wang family. ”

Zhang's mother Lu smiled: "Okay, don't talk about it, you can go." Seeing his son and Wuling in front and Shi Shuang carrying his luggage behind, the three of them bypassed the Fuxue Palace and disappeared, so they turned back to the inner courtyard, and first went to the study in the west building to see, the desk, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were all taken away, and the son was not at home, and it seemed empty all around, without the sound of reading, I was really not used to it-

I thought again: "My son reads well, and Bagu Wen writes wonderfully, and he will go to Hangzhou to take the township test in the future, and he will go to Beijing to participate in the examination, that is the real long journey, at that time, I should not be more relieved?" ”

Just as he was distracted, he suddenly heard Mu Zhenzhen's voice and asked, "Madam, is the young master leaving?" ”

Zhang's mother Lu Shi turned her head to see that Mu Zhenzhen was standing by the patio outside the door of the study, bowing slightly, and the bamboo basket on his back was quite heavy.

"Why are you here so early, is there something wrong?"

Zhang's mother, Lu Shi, walked outside the door and saw that the white and red cheeks of the fallen girl were soaked with a thin layer of fine sweat, and the straw sandals on her feet were covered with dust, obviously she had walked a long way.

Mu Zhenzhen pulled up his cuffs and wiped his sweat, panting slightly: "The young master likes to eat oranges, this is until the meeting will study for several days and will not come back, so the little maid will go to the dock to pick up a basket of oranges for the young master to take - madam, when did the young master leave?" ”

Xixing Canal Wharf has come and gone for more than 20 miles, what a stupid boy, where can I buy oranges, I have to come in such a hurry!

Zhang's mother Lu was moved in her heart and said, "I just turned around the Fuxue Palace, you go quickly, you can catch up." ”

Before the words fell, Mu Zhenzhen turned around and ran, chased out of the Fuxue Palace for a mile, and was almost to the Fuhe, and finally saw Zhang Yuan's back, and hurriedly called: "Young Master-Young Master of the Zhang Family-"

Zhang Yuan stopped and turned around, and saw Mu Zhenzhen striding over, and when he got closer, the fallen girl suddenly looked a little shy, and said, "The little maid has brought oranges to the young master." ”

Zhang Yuan saw Mu Zhenzhen's sweaty appearance, and felt his heart, and didn't say much, just said happily: "Great, I just took it to Huiji to eat." ”

Shi Shuang put down the pick, put the two baskets of luggage together into one end, and loaded the other end with thirty catties of oranges.

Zhang Yuan said: "It's true that you haven't had breakfast yet, come to my house to eat, remember, often come to see my mother." ”

Mu Zhen was really happy, and said crisply: "Young master, don't worry, the maid will come every day." ”

Zhang Yuan said, "Okay." He waved his hand to Mu Zhenzhen, turned around and walked towards Huiji County on the east bank of the Fu River.

When the three of them came to Wang Siren's house at the east end of Xinghua Temple, it was only the beginning of the hour, and Wang Siren's housekeeper greeted him and said, "Zhang Gongzi came so early, and my master just got up." Led Zhang Yuan into several wings on the west side of the inner courtyard, pointed to one of them and said: "This is the room where the eldest son of my family lives, the eldest prince went to Nanjing Guozi to study last year, and this room is vacant. ”

Zhang Yuan looked at it, the window of the room was bright and clean, and the utensils were also cleaned up, and said with a smile: "The housekeeper has worked hard - Xiao Wu, buy a pot of wine for Steward Wang." ”

Wu Ling sent the six coins of silver sealed in advance, but the steward Wang refused to accept it, Zhang Yuan said: "I am studying here, and there will be a lot of trouble for the housekeeper in the future, if the housekeeper refuses to accept the two pots of wine, then I dare not open my mouth if I want to ask the housekeeper for help in the future." ”

Seeing that this young man was humble and polite, and spoke tactfully, Steward Wang was very happy, and accepted the money and said, "Such a little man has suffered - has Zhang Gongzi ever had breakfast?" Oh, that Zhang Gongzi is waiting here first, and the villain is going to see the master. ”

Shi Shuang took out the luggage and oranges in the basket, and resigned from the young master and went back first.

Zhang Yuan walked to the door and looked at this small courtyard, the small courtyard is rectangular, there is an eight-foot high Taihu Lake stone under the courtyard wall on the left, the lonely peak rises, the strange cliff is fierce, there are several wild goose red plants planted under the Taihu Lake stone, in the late autumn season, the wild goose red leaves are bright and eye-catching, there are small egg-like berries at the bottom of the leaf, the right is the partition wall, there is a moon cave door, the door is opened from that side, the wooden door is closed at this time.

Zhang Yuanxin said: "This is the west side of the inner courtyard, and the other side of the Moon Cave Gate should be the residence of Mr. Tan An and his relatives, uh, this is the west wing." ”

Yesterday, Zhang Yuan learned from his uncle Zhang Rulin that Mr. Tan An has a wife and two concubines, three sons and two daughters, the eldest son is weak and weak, and he is studying in Nanjing Guozijian, and the other two sons are still young, the eldest queen Jingshu, married to Xiaoshan Chen last year, and the second daughter is unknown -

Zhang Yuan thought at the time: "So the young man surnamed Wang who followed Mr. Tan An to the Liyuan Garden that time is very likely to be Mr. Tan An's second daughter, and the Wang girl should be about the same age as me." ”

If Zhang Yuan used to be a little curious about the Wang girl who wanted to buy "Golden Vase Plum", but at this time, in the small courtyard of the west wing of the Wang Mansion, Zhang Yuan only wanted to read Bagu well, and didn't want to get into other trouble.

Just thinking about it, Steward Wang came and said that the master was invited.

Zhang Yuan followed the housekeeper to the study in the front yard to meet Wang Siren, and Wang Siren, who was a teacher, no longer laughed with Zhang Yuan, and said solemnly: "Zhang Yuan, since you have read hundreds of current texts, tell me, where are the eight difficulties?" What's the trick? ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Students think that solving the problem is the most difficult, and once the problem is not solved well, the later writing will be crooked." ”

Wang Siren said: "That's right, the writing is like choosing a color, its face is broken, its neck is bearing, its shoulders and chest are rising, and its waist and limbs are in the thighs-" suddenly closed his mouth, and said in his heart: "How can I be ashamed and ashamed to say this to a young man." ”

Wang Siren admired the beauty to metaphor the superiority of the eight strands, Zhang Yuan listened to it with relish, and suddenly opened, seeing that Wang Siren shut up and didn't say anything, he didn't wake up for a while, and said: "Then it is enough to be the end of the whole text, the eight strands are generally in the long and short fibers, and their demeanor is charming, if far away or near, it is between Ye Fei Ye, and always the face is the main one, the face is not beautiful, and the rest is inferior to the beauty, so the first to solve the problem, sir, is this the truth?" ”

Wang Siren looked up at the wooden beams on the roof, and said in his heart: "Is this a fifteen-year-old boy, he seems to be a veteran of Fengyue Field." ”
