Study? When it comes to this, Li Yuanying has a bit of a headache. Originally, he was just curious about what the ancient library looked like, and he wanted to increase his knowledge and hunt for curiosity, and maybe he could also see the pre-Qin or even earlier documents in the Tang Dynasty, after all, the later generations were far away, and too many historical materials and classics were lost.

But when this matter reached Qinghe Cui's family, it was treated as a bigger matter than marriage, and when it reached the emperor's ears, it was immediately assigned as a political task, so when it really arrived at the place, Li Yuanying didn't think about how to speak.

Fortunately, Li Yuanying's old father-in-law did not slack off, and took the initiative to mention reading the book the next day.

"I heard Mingyue say, the virtuous son-in-law wants to borrow books? It's okay today, why don't I take you to see it now? ”

Li Yuanying was half surprised and half hesitant, and after a moment of silence, he asked: "I brought a few juniors to increase my knowledge, I wonder if my father-in-law can agree to let a few children take this opportunity to read books?" ”

"No problem, the books are handed down for people to read, and several princes will be dragons and phoenixes among people in the future, if they have a studious heart, of course it is a good thing." Cui Jun's heart is like a mirror, but he doesn't break it.

This made Li Yuanying wonder, and he was surprised for a while and asked, "So casual?" Wouldn't it be sloppy? ”

Cui Junxuan smiled and patted his son-in-law and said: "At this time, you and I Weng and my son-in-law, Mingyue told me in detail your advice, the Cui family's collection of books is precious, but it can't help but be borrowed, you are the son-in-law of the Cui family, you can go in and out at will and even transcribe, several princes have special statuses, and the Cui family will not be stingy when you look at Your Majesty and you."

Of course, there is only so much I can promise, and the rest is not a personal relationship, you have to be clear about this, and it is better not to make it difficult for me. ”

Li Yuanying nodded with some gratitude, it can be seen that this old man is still sincere to himself, the secret house of the ancient big family is a core secret, and the thousand-year-old family can prosper forever, which is inseparable from these cultural inheritances. Most likely, it can't be.

Li Yuanying was not in a hurry, he went to visit first, so he called Li Yuanba and a few children, and under the leadership of Cui Junxuan, a group of people saw the secret house of the Cui family in Qinghe.

Pushing open the quaint and old carved door, what came to his face was not the fragrance of ink or books, but a dry and slightly woody and rotten atmosphere, Li Yuanying couldn't help frowning, this is a library, how can it be this kind of environment?

"Usually no one to maintain here? Why is there a dilapidated atmosphere? ”

Cui Junxuan shook his head slightly and said, "No, I often arrange for the descendants of the Cui family to take care of them carefully." But the wisdom of the sages is more than a book on the bamboo slips, many of them are even handed down by the pre-Qin Dynasty, and it is inevitable that they will decay over and over again, in order to maintain the authenticity of the ancestors, we have moved lightly, and every clan borrows it, and it is carefully told over and over again, and it must be lent and returned as it is, otherwise it will be severely punished. Today, the old man wants to tell all of you, the rules are the same, as a reader, you must love books and protect books, and be in awe of the wise sages. ”

As he was talking, he heard a soft hula sound, and everyone looked back nervously, it turned out that Xiao Doudou reached out and picked up a bamboo slip beside him, and looked at it curiously.

Just as Li Yuanying was about to educate the child, Xiao Doudou spoke, "Grandpa, is this your family's collection of books?" Why is it different from my family, my family is all white page by page, it feels slippery, why are there all bundles of bamboo here? Also, why don't we recognize all the words in it? Did my grandfather teach me wrong? ”

Burst...... Li Yuanying couldn't help laughing, walked over and took the bamboo slip in her daughter's hand, looked at it slightly and said: "This is the ancient history book "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period", which was written very early, and the font used to write is the pre-Qin Great Seal, you don't recognize it very normal, after all, your grandfather only handed over your regular script and official script. ”

Cui Junxuan nodded appreciatively: "After the Han Dynasty, Lishu prevailed, and gradually various fonts also showed a hundred schools of thought.

Doudou, the book you are holding, it was written by the ancients, and there was no paper at that time, so the world used bamboo slips or cloth to record words, and bamboo slips were the most common. Even now, the price of paper is very high, not everyone can afford it, and bamboo slips are still used. ”

Li Yuanying asked curiously: "Although the paper is precious, the Qinghe Cui clan should have the strength to copy the stored books onto the paper, so that it is convenient to learn and use. ”

Cui Junsui shook his head and said: "No, outsiders only see the Cui family's great business, but they don't know that compiling and revising classics is a vast project, and future generations are prone to negligence and mistakes in copying, and proofreading and review is very exhausting." Speaking of paper, although since Cai Lun improved papermaking in the Han Dynasty, there are indeed some good papers that can be used, but the output is too low and the cost is too high. ”

"Hey, it's a pity, such an important project has been stranded because of this...... Gee! Li Yuanying commented meaningfully, and then stopped talking and walked in first.

Cui Junqiu walked while introducing the layout of the book collection secret house to everyone, and when he encountered some classic books, he could also tell the story about the books in detail, like a good teacher.

As he walked, Xiao Doudou suddenly clapped his hands and exclaimed, "I thought about it, haha, I finally understood." ”

Got it, surprised?

"Grandpa, grandpa, did the ancient people write on these bamboo pieces? If you want to write a book or a book, don't you need many, many of these bamboo slips? "Little Doudou made a lot of gestures.

Cui Jun stroked his beard and nodded, it is true, but is there any problem?

Xiao Doudou chuckled: "I finally know, grandpa's mouth of the rich five cars, if all of them are loaded with this kind of book, then there are not many, I thought he read a lot of books, hum, plus comic books I have read enough fifteen books, must be more than him read, in the future he dares to brag to me, I will pull a cart of such books to him." ”

What's that? Everyone was caught off guard, they were really defeated by this kind of divine turn, and they were shocked for this? Li Yuanying really wants to tell her daughter that your comic book is not as good as a book written word by word, but looking at her daughter's appearance and imagining the scene of the two grandchildren fighting, it should be very interesting.

Cui Junhui was very relieved, his granddaughter was smart, and she could draw inferences from one another, which was a good thing, so she stroked her beard and said: "Xuefu Wuche is from "Zhuangzi", just to describe a person who reads more and is more knowledgeable, and there are not so many ancient books, so it is great to be able to read Wuche books, and Xuefu Wuche is not necessarily only five cars, most of them are imaginary fingers, which means many cars. ”

Li Yuanying also echoed: "There are many similar idioms, such as sweating cows, which means that there are too many books at home, and when you carry them, you can exhaust the pulled cows......"

Well? Before he finished speaking, Cui Jun next to him was surprised: "Oh? A huge library? Yes, this is a very appropriate phrase, I don't know where it comes from? ”
