Chapter 21: The Joy of Tim Ding
The queen mother's mood gradually returned to calm, and she began to be happy for Ying Ying from her heart, after all, the Huang Mansion was much richer than her own family, and besides, Ying Ying may not be Huang Tai's goddaughter and look down on her son.
Wang Da and Yingying packed up a table of sumptuous wine and food, and on the queen mother's kang, the three of them ate and drank. The queen mother looked at Yingying and her son Wang Da, and her heart blossomed. She wondered how to fulfill them. In the evening, Xiuniang came to pick up Yingying, and Wang Da and his mother were naturally a little reluctant.
The queen mother was resolute and resolute, and she made up her mind, and within a few days, she began to Zhang Luo, and she found a matchmaker to propose marriage to the Yellow Mansion.
Huang Tai liked it very much when he saw Yingying, and was very sympathetic to his family's suffering, he was also robbed on the way to the south, resulting in the separation of flesh and blood, the eldest son's life and death are still unknown, and he naturally sympathizes with each other, which naturally increases a sense of closeness, and he also likes Wang Da, especially the hexagram has the sentence "The good man next door, inheriting the incense", which makes him attach great importance to Wang Da, anyway, this man is a lucky star for the Huang family, and he will marry his goddaughter to him, he is his son-in-law, and he is a family.
After listening to the matchmaker's words, Huang Tai was very happy, so he asked Xiuniang to call Yingying and asked her if she would like to marry Wang Da.
Ying Ying's face was crimson, and she replied: "Ying Ying is all up to her father." The matchmaker was overjoyed and hurriedly told the Wang family's mother and son about the happy event. The Queen Mother wept with joy and personally burned incense to comfort her deceased husband's soul in heaven.
A month later, Huang Tai Zhang Luo married Ying Ying into the Wang family.
Who knew that the queen mother's illness was repeated, and the old man passed away less than two months after Ying Ying entered the school.
Huang Tai simply asked Wang and his wife to move into his compound. Wang Daben is a loyal and honest man, helping his father-in-law manage the house, and he is cautious everywhere, which is deeply liked by Dian Heng and Huang Tai.
Because Chang'an was initially decided, the world was not yet peaceful, and robbers harassed the people frequently, so Dian Heng suggested to Huang Tai to recruit a few family members to take care of the home. Huang Tai readily agreed, and explained that Wang Da had recruited ten family members. So, Dianheng resumed his job as a coach and instructed Jia Ding to dance with a stick.
Wang Da knew that the world was dangerous, and it would be beneficial to learn some self-defense skills, so he and his family learned martial arts with Dianheng. Dian Heng had long intended to accept Wang Da's apprentice, and when he saw him taking the initiative to learn, he naturally smiled and tried his best to guide and supervise. Although Wang Da is older and his joints are stiff, he has studied hard and practiced hard, and he has also learned fists, feet, and sticks well.
In addition to practicing martial arts, Wang Da also likes to read the books of sages, and he has dabbled in many books and five classics, especially the Book of Changes.
Since the hexagram of "the ox flies back, carrying the woman and carrying the gold" has been fulfilled, Wang Da regards his father-in-law as a god, admires the five bodies to the ground, and works the Book of Changes on weekdays, hoping to learn the old father-in-law's divination skills. But the I Ching is really deep and difficult to understand, Wang Da has memorized the I Ching very well, as for divination, but he is still confused, and he doesn't know how to start. Although he and Huang Tai have the name of Weng son-in-law, after all, his wife is just the goddaughter of other people, how can the old father-in-law's unique divination skills be easily taught to others. Every time he mustered up the courage to ask his father-in-law for advice, he stopped talking.
But it is said that diligence and talent can not be concealed, Wang Daxue is easy to fascination, and recites the I Ching more than ten times a day, even in his sleep, he often reiterates unconsciously. Wang Da worked hard at night, and his energy was low during the day.
Once, after leading the family members to practice martial arts, Wang Da fell asleep in the awning next to the martial arts practice field in the backyard, muttering the scriptures of the I Ching while sleeping: "Da Guo: Dong Hua, there is a good future, Heng." The sixth day of the first month: borrowing white grass, no blame. Ninety-two: Withered poplar is born, the old man gets his wife, and there is no disadvantage......"
Dian Heng went to the martial arts field to inspect, and heard Wang Da taking a nap and muttering something, and listened carefully, it turned out that he was reciting the Book of Changes, and nodded secretly.
Dian Heng is also a fan of Yi Heng, he is very familiar with the I Ching scriptures, and when he heard Wang Daneng recite the I Ching in his sleep, he secretly admired it in his heart. You must know that there are more than 10,000 words in the I Ching scriptures, and it is not easy to recite them to this extent.
At this time, Wang Da had already noticed that there was someone in front of him, and when he opened his eyes and saw Dian Heng, he hurriedly got up and saluted his master.
Dian Heng said: "You also love the Book of Changes!"
Wang Da smiled shyly: "I just feel curious!"
Dian Heng said: "Your father-in-law is a master, ask your father-in-law for advice." ”
Wang Dawei was embarrassed: "I know that I am stupid, and I am afraid that my father will not look down on me." ”
Dian Heng nodded: "Good boy, don't worry, I'll tell your father-in-law." The king was overjoyed and knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Dianheng smiled and left.
In the evening, in Huang Tai's study, Dian Heng excitedly told Huang Tai about Wang Da's obsession with the Book of Changes.
Huang Tai's eyes lit up: "Wang Da really worked so hard!"
Dianheng said: "Brother Tai, that's still fake." The boy was asleep and could still recite scriptures. Pass on your skills to him. I don't think he's very perceptive. You have some time to dial him!"
Huang Tai smiled and nodded: "Being able to recite scriptures in my dreams is even harder than when I was learning Yi back then!
Dian Heng realized that Huang Tai's words evoked the pain and regret hidden in his heart: the in-laws originally wanted to pass on their skills to their son Huang Yuan, Huang Yuan had a gentle temperament, diligent and inquisitive, excellent memory, and I Ching could be memorized backwards, Huang Tai had long been focusing on cultivating his son, hoping that he could carry forward this knowledge, but it was a pity that Huang Yuan died young!
Huang Tai had been unable to recover from the loss of his son for a long time, and today he heard how hard Wang Da studied the I Ching, how could he not let him recall the benefits of Huang Yuan.
Dian Heng was afraid that his in-laws would be entangled in the sad things of the past and could not extricate themselves, so he deliberately diverted the topic and talked about the current security situation in the capital.
Dian Heng said: "I heard that Lu Polou has successfully destroyed several theft groups in the capital, and the security situation in the capital has improved!"
Huang Tai said: "Lu Polou is indeed very capable, and the emperor used him to replace Jia Zhong as the lieutenant of Sili, which should be said to be the right person." Dian Heng chatted with Huang Tai about the situation in the world for a while before returning to the room to rest.
Huang Tai secretly inspected Wang Da and found that he was indeed a loyal, filial, diligent and serious honest man, so he decided to teach what he had learned.
I Ching is the penetration of heaven and man on the occasion of the university question, understand the law of change of the Book of Changes, then you can understand the changes of yin and yang, counsellor heaven and earth of the education, on the can serve the country, peace and stability of the country, under the self-cultivation, enlightenment comes true, but the key is to learn the virtue of the Yi, the road to simplicity, only the virtuous live, I Ching has great achievements are all loyal and filial sons, righteous and virtuous. This king practiced martial arts during the day, learned it easy at night, and his kung fu knowledge grew day by day.
