Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Mystery of Life
"There are a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens it alone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info remote knowledge is not snow, because there is a dark fragrance to come. ”
Chu Qingyan groaned: "Ah, Wang Anshi's plum blossom poem is really well written!"
Long Feiyuan said: "Your poem is plain, I still like the Momei of the crown." 'My family washes the inkstone pond tree, and the flowers bloom with faint ink marks. Don't let people praise the good color, only leave the clear air full of goodness. 'Using flowers as a metaphor, he shows his contempt for vulgarity, his own self-esteem, and his lonely character. That's a good one!"
Yunxiao could see that her eyes were so yearning when she chanted this poem, without the cold arrogance in the past, she was also a lovely girl!
Long Feiyu said: "It's not good, it's not good, I still like Ouyang Xiu's song "Tasha Xing, Waiting for the Plum Remnant." ”
Yan Yan said: "The waiting hall is plum, the stream bridge is thin, and the grass is warm and the wind is warm." The sorrow is gradually farther and farther away, and the distance is constantly like spring water. Inch by inch soft intestines, full of tears, the height of the building is not close to danger. At the end of Pingwu is Spring Mountain, and pedestrians are even outside Spring Mountain. ”
He looked at Chu Qingyan and said, "Although the whole meaning of this word is sorrowful, it is lovesickness between the two places, a feeling, deep and sad, this is applauded!"
Chu Qingyan knew what he was thinking, and lowered her head with a slightly red face.
Yunxiao is a careful person, and he sees the poetry and lyrics of these people in his eyes and knows a little about their respective thoughts. didn't have time to think about it, but he heard Cheng Zijin say: "No, no, no, what you said just now doesn't add up to these two sentences." ”
He groaned: "'The shadows are sparse and the water is shallow, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon. 'What a sense of meaning, how beautiful!, Brother Xiao?'
Yunxiao saw that he was complacent, and only glanced at him. Chu Qingyan came to ask Yunxiao: "Young Master Xiao, which Yongmei poem do you like?"
Yunxiao thought for a while and said, "'Mei Xue is not willing to descend in the spring, and the Sao Ren Pavilion is a pen fee. The plum and snow are three points white, but the snow loses the plum and a piece of fragrance. Lu Meipo's "Snow Plum" means that I appreciate it very much. This poem uses Xuemei's competition for spring to warn us that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and we must be self-aware. It is the right principle to learn from others' strengths and make up for their own shortcomings. This poem is both interesting and reasonable, and it is worth pondering. ”
The second daughter nodded, listening to what he said reasonably. The five of them talked about poetry and lyrics for a while, touring the forest and enjoying the flowers, and Long Feiyu gradually blended in.
It was past the afternoon, and a few people had not yet finished their fun, but people were iron and steel, and when it was time to eat, everyone felt a little hungry in their stomachs. Long Feiyu said softly to Chu Qingyan: "Qingyan, there is a pavilion in front, you go there to rest and rest, I'll go find some firewood and game to come back!"
Chu Qingyan agreed with a smile, and Long Feiyuan said, "Brother, I'll go with you!"
After saying that, the two of them went, and Cheng Zijin saw that Long Feikite had also gone, and shouted: "Hey, wait for me, I'll go too!"
Long Feikite turned his head and glared at him. But Cheng Zijin was still cheeky, and followed with a hippie smile.
Only Yunxiao and Chu Qingyan were left, and the two released the horses and went to the pavilion to rest together. The pavilion was clean, it seemed to be a place where people frequented, and there was still some unused dry firewood in the pavilion. Chu Qingyan picked up a clean stone bench and sat down, while Yunxiao picked up dry firewood and lit a fire not far from Chu Qingyan.
There were just two of them in the pavilion, Yunxiao was rarely alone with others, and he had never been alone with a woman, only fiddling with firewood at this time, not saying a word, which was very embarrassing.
Chu Qingyan is everyone's best girl, and she is generous, so she spoke first.
"Xiao Gongzi!"
Yunxiao glanced up at her, quickly lowered his head, and said, "Miss, is there something wrong?"
Chu Qingyan saw that he was very uncomfortable, and she didn't feel funny, and said in her heart: A big man, he is still so shy, could it be that Miss Ben will eat you!"
But she smiled and said, "Oh, it's okay!"
Yunxiao said, "Oh!"
The atmosphere solidified like this again, and after a while, Chu Qingyan felt a little bored, looking around, seeing the white horse in the sky, she couldn't help asking, "By the way, Xiao Gongzi." Where did your white horse come from?
Yunxiao said: "I met it a few years ago when I was collecting firewood in the mountains, and when I saw that it was alone and injured, I brought it back and raised it so big." ”
Chu Qingyan said: "Oh! No wonder my Huohua is not as good as it, it turned out to be a wild horse, no wonder it runs so fast!"
Yunxiao smiled slightly, but there was no language.
Chu Qingyan said again: "Where is Xiao Gongzi from, you don't feel like a northerner with your accent, right?"
Yunxiao said: "No, I am from the Xuzhou Mansion in Shuzhong!"
Chu Qingyan was surprised: "What? are you from Xuzhou Mansion?"
Yunxiao said: "Yes, is there something wrong?"
Chu Qingyan said: "It's not wrong, it's just too coincidental." Do you know? Uncle Zhou Hongmo of the Ministry of Rites is from Xuzhou Mansion, and you saw him in the Zhaoxian Pavilion that day, but you didn't think you were his little fellow countryman!"
Yunxiao nodded, in fact, he knew Zhou Hongmo when he was in his hometown. When he entered Beijing now, he didn't expect to really see this person, but his identity was very different, and he didn't make friends.
Chu Qingyan said curiously: "It turns out that you already knew, so why don't you go to visit his old man's house? If he knew that there was such a little fellow as you, he might be so happy!"
Yunxiao shook his head, didn't explain anything, didn't speak for a long time, Chu Qingyan asked, "Does Xiao Gongzi still have brothers and sisters?"
When Yunxiao heard this, there was indescribable bitterness in his eyes, and he didn't say anything for a long time, Chu Qingyan looked at him in surprise, waiting for him to answer. After a long time, Yunxiao said: "I don't have a family!"
Hearing his answer, Chu Qingyan was really surprised, he was so good, he turned out to be an orphan. Chu Qingyan couldn't help asking, "Then ...... you?"
But as soon as I said two words, I regretted it, and I didn't say the rest of the words. Yunxiao looked up at her, knowing what she wanted to ask, so he said: "I was raised by an old monk in a dilapidated temple, and I don't know who my parents are since I can remember? It wasn't until I was thirteen years old that the master passed away, and the temple was struggling to maintain. So I left there and found another place to make a living selling firewood. ”
Chu Qingyan was still puzzled, blinked, and said, "I think that master must be a master of the world, right? No wonder I trained you so well!"
Yunxiao shook his head and said, "He is just a monk who eats fasting and recites Buddha, except for a little literacy, he has no high ability. However, when I was very young, he began to teach me to read and write, and warned me to be a useful person in the future. It's just that the temple still has a little collection of books, what are the four books and five classics, the art of war, music and music scores, historical classics and the like, I have nothing to do every day is to read books and learn words, and my ability is only to learn from these books, nothing else. ”
Chu Qingyan bowed her head and asked softly, "Did the old master take you to find your life experience?"
Yunxiao said: "Feeling?"
Chu Qingyan said: "It's just like usual, are there some people who are particularly concerned about you or take special care of you?"
Yunxiao smiled bitterly: "No, people like me are not subject to the eyes of others, it is good if people don't hide, who else will care about it." I also inquired from the place where the master picked me up, but I couldn't find it. ”
Yunxiao gently took out a piece of jade from his body and continued: "But this piece of jade has always been worn on me, and the master said that it has been on me since the moment I picked it up, and it should be the only relic left to me by my parents!"
Chu Qingyan looked at the jade carefully, and saw that the jade was extremely simple, and the carving on the jade was also very exquisite, not ordinary, like a family heirloom.
"Well, maybe......! Do you hate your parents, do you hate them for abandoning you?" Chu Qingyan asked in a soft voice.
Yunxiao smiled and said: "What do you hate, people often say that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read." Maybe it's their fault for abandoning me, but I'm sure they have a reason, because no one in the world would throw away their own flesh and blood easily. ”
Chu Qingyan nodded and praised, "Yes." Xiao Gongzi's mind can really accommodate heaven and earth!"
She looked at the man in front of her carefully, she didn't expect his life experience to be so miserable, and she felt more and more sympathy and appreciation for this man in her heart.
"Miss, do you believe in fate?" Yunxiao suddenly asked Chu Qingyan, this was the first time he asked a question in the pavilion, and it was also the first time he took the initiative to speak.
Chu Qingyan was a little surprised, groaned slightly, but shook her head and said, "I don't believe it!"
Yunxiao said: "I believe! I believe that a person's life is predestined, what is he suitable for? What kind of person can he be? What kind of experience will he have in his life? Everything is predetermined, and even if he asks for it, he can't force it." So I'm going to accept my experience and never complain about it!"
Chu Qingyan looked at him in astonishment, she never expected Yunxiao to be so calm about her experience!
