Chapter Ninety-Seven: From Books to People
Belch......
Chu Jiayin really thought that this guy had some tricks, after all, he was old! The ancients said that eating more salt for a few years will always have more life skills than people who eat less salt for a few years in some strange aspects, after all, life and life are based on firewood, rice, oil and salt.
Now it seems that she thinks highly of Chu Liangshan.
"Then you're not afraid that you won't fail the test?" Chu Jiayin hugged his arms, didn't bother to look at him again, and insisted on laughing at him with a lot of energy.
Chu Liangshan smiled and said, "You look at me like this, can you pass the exam?" ”
That's right, too.
Quite self-aware!
Chu Jiayin was too lazy to talk to him about boring nonsense anymore, and took the initiative to draw a line with him, creating a relatively safe and difficult communication boundary between them.
After listening to this strange book, which was not written at all to attract guests, the people below sighed constantly, argued, and were even more angry and incessant.
"Which idiot wrote this, is it unpleasant to listen to sincerity?" Someone threw up his sleeves, his face full of anger.
Others responded: "That's it! How could he write like this? It's going to fall off the list at first glance, it's really ......"
"If the owner of this book does not fall off the list, I will buy a thousand volumes of this rubbing!" Some people are proud and ruthless.
"I heard it, this brother wants to buy a thousand volumes, and the brother who wrote the book is willing to come out to see us? Make a friend, and you will have a good response in the future, even if you fall off the list together, then we can make a comeback in another four years. ”
That's a nice thing to say, some of these people down there can't help but pull at the collar of the book and scold you for what kind of disgusting stuff you wrote. At this time, this brother who wrote a book went out, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky, and the strong man will not be able to return once he is gone.
Chu Jiayin glanced at Chu Liangshan, the man was still calm and natural, as if the person who wrote the book was really not him. Perhaps, Chu Jiayin guessed wrong, and it is not for sure, although there are indeed six or seven points written in the article that are very similar to Chu Liangshan's experience.
can write books, especially write scripts to make money, who is not making things up? Maybe it's just that it's just happened to be choreographed like Chu Liangshan's experience, after all, the woman mentioned in the article, the protagonist's mother, was described so badly, it didn't look like what a son would do.
The time of storytelling in the teahouse has passed, and the people, birds and beasts sitting on the first floor have dispersed, and the guests on the second floor are calling for food and the guys in the store to come and clean up the bedroom, intending to sleep well. This inn has good feng shui, and it has left a lot of talents who have gone through the nine-day scientific examination steadily.
This can't be said, the city and countryside inside and outside Kyoto are trying to solve the yuan, and in this one, the next scientific examination, this inn is going to become a treasure of feng shui.
……
"The son taught the widow to cut down Wu's seven techniques, and the widow used three of them to defeat Wu, and the fourth was in the son, and the son tried it for me from the previous king...... Uh, can't remember. Chu Jiayin turned the book back from his back, muttered for a long time, and then turned his face to Chu Jingyan.
Chu Jingyan took her book and put it in her hand, not allowing her to have another chance to take it away and read it again.
"What do you mean by answering me?" Chu Jingyan asked, this book is for introductory students, and there are annotations at the bottom of the book.
But with Chu Jiayin's memory, it is already great to be able to remember the original text, and she really can't do it if she has to ask her to memorize the paraphrase. In the past few days, I have memorized a number of jerky and unrecognizable words, and I can barely translate a few sentences of the meaning of the literati of my predecessors.
Chu Jiayin bit her finger and thought about it desperately, but she never thought of what this "sub" referred to. As for the previous article, she had just memorized it and almost forgot it. But the widow she knows what it is, the felling of logging, here it should not mean logging, following the emperor, it should be the felling of conquest.
"You ......" Chu Jiayin looked at Chu Jingyan carefully when he said this word, and saw that he had no objections, and it should be a good translation, so he was a little bolder.
"You teach the widow to conquer...... Wu...... Wu Guo, um, seven ways, the widow used three of them to defeat Wu Guo, four of them are in your hands, you can try it for me to follow the first king. It took a long time to come up with a lame translation, and after saying that, Chu Jiayin's face turned green.
It's definitely not right, even if she hasn't read the translation, she can find a lot of problems in it, and she herself has a lot of questions to misinterpret the meaning.
"That's six or seven points." Chu Jingyan returned the book.
Chu Jiayin was slightly surprised, his eyes lit up, he was actually right, six or seven points, it seems that he has made a lot of progress. Chu Jiayin couldn't help but feel a little proud and happy, as soon as she opened the book, she silently deepened her memory of what she had just memorized, and read the translation of the part she didn't understand just now.
I remember it very deeply now, and when I meet him again in the future, I should be able to recognize it.
Chu Jingyan poured cold water on the air: "You are reading like this, if you enter the examination room, you can only write a few sticks of incense, and the rest will not be able to write even if you empty your brain." ”
"Huh?" Chu Jiayin's sudden interest fell into a trough and was sluggish.
Chu Jiayin covered her face, only revealing her two eyes, looked at Chu Jingyan, and said angrily to the second brother in her childlike voice: "But second brother, I don't have to participate in the scientific examination." Even if you want to participate, you can't, right? For more than 1,000 years since the establishment of the imperial examination, there has never been a share of our women in the examination room to make a name for themselves. ”
"Then why are you studying so hard and diligently?" Chu Jingyan asked.
Chu Jiayin thought about it, and now this reading and writing is at most used for various banquets, competing with those ladies, and not losing the face of the Chu family. Others, it doesn't seem to be useful, if you want to ask Chu Jiayin what she would do if she can write, she will probably want to write a book and open a teahouse to make money!
"I want to write a script and open another teahouse in the future, what do you think, second brother?" Chu Jiayin looked at Chu Jingyan expectantly, hoping for his approval.
Chu Jingyan was not as good as she wanted, and asked rhetorically: "You are the sixth lady of the Chu family, you have no worries about food and clothing, what do you do when you open a teahouse and write a script?" ”
"Interesting! You see that at the end of this life, in fact, there are only a few looks, and there are even fewer ways out for our girls, and it can even be said that we have died of routines. Or marry someone like me and continue to have no worries about food and clothing, at most, you will become a mother and have to raise children, and when the children are older, you will naturally grow old. ”
"Or be unlucky, marry a scumbag who won't spoil people at all and won't care about the feelings of husband and wife, and end up depressed and die of resentment."
If it weren't for a new life, Chu Jiayin's fate would be no different from that of the woman in the boudoir in the city, nothing more than getting married, having children, and seeing her children grow up if she had a better life, and this life would be mediocre.
Like a man, studying and preparing for the imperial examination is a big challenge, and it is also wonderful to see thousands of mountains and rivers outside to make money to support his family. Some of them have unlimited scenery in the court, and some of them are so majestic on the battlefield.
Anyway, in the end, it will be much more fun than the life of the daughter's family.
"Do you know why a lot of people like to listen to books? I may not know, but for me, the purpose of reading the book and listening to the storyteller is that life is too boring, whether it is good or bad, it is extremely boring, and when you look at the characters in the book, you can't help but marvel at how wonderful and desirable his life is. Some people are born, destined to be green leaves around the flowers, even if they are broken, they will not be able to achieve great things after all, they can only look at those who stand on a high place and call for wind and rain, and they are jealous at the bottom. ”
There was a vase in front of Chu Jiayin, and there were flowers in the vase that were blooming just right, and there were green leaves around the flowers. Because of the existence of green leaves, the flowers are more delicate and beautiful, but after all, there are no green leaves in the eyes of people, and they never pay attention to it.
"In the final analysis, the most boring thing is to be born in this world and be a daughter's family. Women embarrass women for men, and men always have a reason and nobility to treat women as accessories. There is no freedom in the accessories, they have to obey the man's arrangement, they are not allowed to go out to show off, they are not allowed to do this or that. ”
The world compares beautiful women to all kinds of flowers to sing and write, but they don't know that in this world, the real flowers should be those men who are not bound by anything and can work hard outside.
They can climb to the heights little by little, and those legendary men have seized power and won the world. The women who accompanied him were like clothes, like green leaves decorated around flowers, dispensable.
A person's robe can hide his shame, and a beautiful robe can lead passers-by back, but it doesn't have to be clothed. The flowers in the vase are beautiful when they are decorated with green leaves, but without the green leaves, it is still an eye-catching flower, but it is a little less vibrant.
So, it's dispensable.
These nice-to-haves......
Chu Jiayin took out the vase strength flower, put it to his nose to smell its taste, and said with a gloomy expression: "Perhaps, for us, freedom can only rely on fantasy, right?" After reading the script, I knew that there was such a way for us to choose, and I couldn't help but yearn for it, and my heart was colored. ”
She likes scripts, not because they're funny, but because they're the only interesting thing in her life. She likes to fantasize about being the protagonist in it, like a chivalrous heroine, who comes and goes freely and uninhibited.
Even if I think about it in my dreams, I hear it from the mouth of the storyteller, and I see it from the words in the book, and I have a sense of happiness in my heart.
Chu Jingyan is also a bird trapped in prison, and only books can let him know what the outside world is like. He doesn't like to be in contact with people, not even a person around him who mutters about the outside world.
Before the arrival of the Wind and Dust Moon, his perception of everything outside was pale.
This is probably why Feng Chenyue is so annoying, and Chu Jingyan is willing to believe him a little.
