Chapter 3 First acquaintance with Wei Xiaobao

On this day, the annex suddenly became lively, and more than a dozen carriages were parked in front of the gate, and a large number of men and women, old and young, including masters and servants, came down from the carriages. The masters, dressed in silk and satin, were ladies and children, and after they entered the gate noisily, the servants began to unload their things from the carriage.

In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was trapped in Jiangdu, and the peasant uprising gradually became a prairie fire. The Guanzhong region was also not calm, with several groups of rebels and thieves appearing. They attacked counties and counties, conquered cities, and made people in Chang'an City panic. Some dignitaries and dignitaries sent their families to the countryside, and Wei Yijie also sent their families to the annex. After all, the Nanshan area is located in a remote area, so it is relatively safe.

Wei Yijie has five children, the eldest son is an official outside, and the eldest daughter is married. There are three children who came to the annex this time, the eldest young master is fourteen years old, the young lady is twelve years old, and the younger young master is only eight years old.

As soon as Mrs. Wei settled down, the little young master jumped over and shouted, "Mother, mother, there is a person living in the backyard. When Mrs. Wei heard this, her eyebrows tightened, and she called the housekeeper over and asked, "Who lives in the backyard guest room?" The housekeeper replied cautiously: "I don't know the little one, but the master brought it back." ”

Mrs. Wei thought for a moment and said, "Since the master brought it back, just be careful." The butler said yes and went out.

At this time, the young lady also ran over and shouted, "Mother, we are going to play in the backyard!" Mrs. Wei agreed.

The two children called their brother, and the three of them came to the backyard together, only to see Li Zhiyun doing morning exercises in an open space by the pond. The three children stood in the corridor and watched for a while, and the little master couldn't help but exclaim, "Hey, what are you doing?" ”

Li Zhiyun turned his head to look at them and replied, "Do radio gymnastics." The three children looked at each other, but they didn't understand.

After Li Zhiyun finished the exercise, he took off the long shirt hanging on the branch and put it on, and walked towards a hexagonal pavilion next to him.

The eldest young master walked over diagonally and said politely: "Please forgive us for disturbing our distinguished guests." In Xia Wei Xiaobao, may I ask my brother's surname? ”

When Li Zhiyun heard this, he almost laughed out loud. He hurriedly suppressed his laughter and said seriously: "The foolish brother's surname is Li." Then he walked into the pavilion and sat down at the stone table. Wei Xiaobao also came over and sat down opposite him, and just as he was about to speak, Miss Wei ran over with two pieces of paper in her hand, and trembled at Li Zhiyun: "Hey, did you write this?" ”

It seems that this little girl has "swept" his room. Li Zhiyun was slightly displeased, frowned, and nodded slowly.

Wei Xiaobao saw that he was unhappy, so he reprimanded his sister with a straight face: "It's rude! In the future, you are not allowed to enter the guest room without the permission of the guest! After that, I took a piece of paper from my sister's hand, unfolded it and looked at it, wow, this word is so ugly! He glanced at Li Zhiyun in surprise, and was afraid that the other party would be embarrassed, so he immediately lowered his head and read carefully:

"Song of the Goose"

Goose, goose, goose,

Singing to the sky with a curved neck.

white-haired floating green water,

Anthurium plucks clear waves.

After Wei Xiaobao finished reading it, he couldn't help but high-five. He looked at Li Zhiyun in surprise and said, "This poem is very good, but it was written by Brother Tai?" Li Zhiyun shook his head and said, "This is still made by King Luo Bin, and I am just copying it." Miss Wei on the side interjected: "Who is Luo Bingwang?" ”

"A seven-year-old."

Wei Xiaobao praised: "It is really extraordinary that a seven-year-old child can write this poem!" The little master ran over and grabbed the paper, shook his head and read aloud: "Goose, goose, goose......"

So, in the next few days, the entire annex, from Mrs. Wei to Yahuan's mother, all knew "goose, goose, goose,......"

Wei Xiaobao read the next one again: "At noon on hoeing day, sweat drops are in the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work." He looked up and said, "This poem is even better." It was also transcribed by Brother Tai? Li Zhiyun nodded. He didn't bother to explain, and quickly changed the topic: "You are from Chang'an, right?" Great, tell me about the situation outside, I'm suffocating! ……”

Wei Xiaobao told him what he knew about the battle between the official army and the rebels, and he said that Li Yuan had conquered Huoyi and defeated the 30,000 army of Huyalang general Song Laosheng.

When Li Zhiyun heard this, he was extremely excited. He looked forward to Li Yuan's arrival in Chang'an, so that his good days would come.

Wei Xiaobao looked at each other strangely. He wanted to know most about Li Zhiyun's situation, so he asked: "Where does Brother Tai come from?" ”

Coincidentally, a bird flew in the sky, and Li Zhiyun pointed to the sky with his hand.

"What, Brother Tai is from heaven?" Wei Xiaobao asked suspiciously.

Li Zhiyun explained: "There is a big bird, which is made of iron, and I am in the belly of the bird. Later...... "he made a gesture with his hand that the bird fell head-on," and I came here. ”

Miss Wei on the side exclaimed, "Really? That's amazing, too! ”

"So, Brother Tai is from a foreign land?" Wei Xiaobao didn't know if what he said was true or not, but he was very interested in what he said, so he asked, "Are there any rare objects in the foreign land?" ”

"Absolutely. For example, instead of lighting candles at night, electric lights are used. ”

At this time, the young master of the Wei family ran over and asked loudly, "What is an electric light?" ”

"Electricity is the lightning of the sky."

Wei Xiaobao seemed to have an understanding, and said, "Brother Tai is talking about catching the lightning in the sky and lighting it in the house?" ”

"Not caught from heaven, but ...... from a machine"

In his previous life, Li Zhiyun liked to brag to his colleagues. I stayed here for more than two months, and I only faced a little girl ring every day. Although he also bragged to Chun'er, after all, there were few listeners. Now several people have come at once, which has doubled his spirits and started to brag nonsense.

The three children of the Wei family are not deeply involved in the world. Furthermore, how much knowledge could ancient children have? What Li Zhiyun said was what they had never seen and heard of, and it was not even recorded in the book. They were dumbfounded and amazed when they heard this, and they no longer dared to underestimate him, and simply regarded him as a god-like figure......

So, after every hour, after reading the sage book, the young master of the Wei family ran to the backyard to play with Li Zhiyun and listen to him tell strange stories. In addition to exercising and practicing calligraphy every day, Li Zhiyun has nothing to do, so he is so uncomfortable that he simply set up a bookstore in the courtyard and talked about "Journey to the West". This is a terrible story, and even the servants came to listen to the story.

So, the guys, maids, and mothers of the Wei family finished their work early every day, and when the time came, they all sat around the hexagonal pavilion with small benches and listened to Li Zhiyun talk about "Journey to the West". There were twenty or thirty people, a large area of black pressing, all of them listened attentively and relished......

On this day, Mrs. Wei came out of the room, only to see an old mother running in front of her in a hurry, and hurriedly called out to her, frowning: "What are you doing in a hurry?" ”

The old mother hurriedly saluted and said with a smile: "Madam, go and listen to Li Gongzi's story." Hehe, Zhu Bajie marries a daughter-in-law, it's so fun......" said and hurriedly ran away.

Mrs. Wei said to herself, "What story do you listen to?" Don't even do your job? ……”

Li Zhiyun's status in the Wei family has improved significantly, and the subordinates have a Li Gongzi. His food was better, and his clothes and bedding were cleaner. Even Chun'er felt that her status had improved. Because, Li Gongzi has always been her servant, and she knows the most about Li Gongzi......
