Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 279
Old Mr. Zhao watched a few students go out with a smile, then took out six plates of snacks from the food box with his own hands, took out some tea leaves from the small bamboo tube, and made them for the two old friends.

Mr. Han and Mr. Feng took a sip and praised, "This is good tea, Rongcheng Wuye Cuiyun. I drank it at our dean's once a few years ago. I said you can't live in the academy, you have to Coming to this small village to teach Mengtong, it turns out that there is such a good tea to drink every day."

"I'm also in your favor. Didn't you hear what the little girl said just now? It was specially sent by their mistress for me to entertain you." Mr. Zhao smiled and took another piece of mung bean cold cake and put it on Mr. Feng In the plate, he said, "This snack tastes good too, try it all."

Mr. Feng looked down, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said with a smile, "I'm curious, which village boy's family you teach is so rich, the tea is the best, and the snacks are also the first-class products. If If such students teach a few more, wouldn’t they be safe in their later years.”

Mr. Han and Mr. Zhao looked at each other. They are old friends who have worked with Mr. Feng for more than ten years.Mr. Feng laughed loudly, "I told you what you two have been up to lately. It turned out that you secretly found a good marriage for An Zhi, but now that you think about it, that little maid just now has already memorized the Analects of Confucius." From the poem, it can be seen that this Muxian mansion is not a vulgar house, if the girl's temper and appearance are not too unbearable, it is indeed good for Anzhi to book this marriage."

Old Mr. Han nodded and sighed, "Original marriage should be based on Anzhi's will. It would be too utilitarian if it involves interests. However, in this world, there is no one to help, and I want to stand in the officialdom." It is really not easy to get a foothold. Therefore, it is best for Anzhi and that girl to agree with each other. He will become famous in the future, and his ancestors will be honored. It is not in vain for me to teach him for many years. After I die, I will have the face to meet Brother Wei."

Mr. Zhao didn't like old friends being sad, so he quickly brought them some hot tea, and talked about some interesting things about Professor Mengtong, which was very enjoyable.

The summer solstice leads the way. Several scholars live in the city. They mostly study in colleges on weekdays, and rarely go to the countryside. Today is sunny and they don’t need to study. Traveling around the small mountain villages is very novel and interesting.Besides, last autumn in Lijia Village, every family distributed a lot of money, and they all repaired their houses. the crowd.Therefore, several people feel that this village is different from Biechu.

Tang Shusheng and the others would pull Wang Shusheng to ask a few questions about any novelty they saw, and laughed a few times from time to time, causing the villagers in the village to go out to look around, and saw that it was Mr. Wang and some leaders from Mengxueli. The young students wearing square scarves and long gowns hurriedly saluted.Wang Shusheng also quickly returned the gift, and the rest of them, except Wei Shusheng who also returned the gift with a smile, all gave up hastily.

Xia Zhi couldn't help being happy in her heart. She had guessed from the conversations of several people just now that this scholar in a royal blue robe was the husband-in-law her lady was going to see today, so she always paid attention to his words and deeds , really, the more I look at it, the more I am satisfied. At this time, I am very sincere in returning gifts to the folks, which shows that I am not an arrogant person.She was anxious to go back and report to her wife and lady, so when she turned near the gate of her house, she said goodbye to Wang Shusheng first.

Tang Shusheng and the others looked in her direction, and saw that at the end of the Qingshi Road, there was a quaint courtyard with blue bricks and gray tiles, with a red porch under the high lintel, and an old gatehouse with gray hair on the side. While drinking tea, he carefully sculpted the wood carving in his hand, and saw the green-clothed maid running past, and said something with a smile, causing the maid to reply crisply and run in.

Tang Scholar pointed at the gate with his fat right hand and asked, "Brother Wang, whose mansion is this, it's really well built."

Wang Scholar smiled slightly, "Brother Tang doesn't know something. My younger brother was hired as a teacher in this mansion a few months ago. Later, the student of my younger brother moved to another place, so he switched to elementary school to teach."

Hearing what he said, Chang Shusheng next to him put away the folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile, "Is there any secret in this mansion? Brother Wang said these few words, but none of them are useful."

Song Shusheng also echoed, and Wei Xiucai guessed in his heart that this courtyard should be the residence of the lady, so he just smiled and didn't speak.

Wang Shusheng laughed, "Brother Chang, Brother Song is too impatient, let's talk while walking. This mansion is called Muxian Mansion. Maybe you are not very familiar with this name, but there are two names of shops. You must be familiar with it, one is called Food for the Heaven, the other is called People’s Medical Center, and by the way, it seems to have opened a new one recently, called Qiweiju.”

A few scholars have some poetry meetings on weekdays, and they will inevitably buy snacks, so they are very familiar with Shiweitian, but the one they are most familiar with is Qiweiju.

Chang Shusheng's eyes were wide open, and he looked at the lintel that was getting closer and closer, but he didn't say anything for a long time. They were rewarded with ice bowls for answering the questions last time, and the teachers who taught them happened to taste them, and they once praised them for it. I passed them, but I also analyzed the intentions of the young boy in detail. At first they didn't believe it. Later, when Qiweiju opened, they finally understood that they boasted that they had learned from others, and they should give it to a child It was used as a cover.Although they didn't feel jealous in their hearts, they still couldn't laugh or cry, and they were full of curiosity about this mansion that could teach such smart children. They didn't expect this mansion to appear so suddenly in front of them today.They really have mixed feelings in their hearts.

Wang Shusheng didn't know that they had had such an experience, and thought they didn't believe that those very famous shops came from this remote mountain village, so he said with a smile, "Brothers, there is no need to doubt, this mansion The owner is a widowed woman, she is extremely reasonable, generous and benevolent. The lotus pond we are going to visit belongs to this mansion."

Speaking of this, several people were passing by the main entrance, Wen Bo saw that it was Wang Shusheng, so he got up and saluted, Wang Shusheng hurriedly returned the salute, Wen Bo smiled slightly, sat down again and continued to ponder the small objects in his hand.The attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, without the arrogance of a family servant, nor the cowardice of ordinary villagers. Looking at the screen wall in the door behind him, there is a huge picture of proud snow and winter plums. The branches are dry and cracked. The plum petals bloom proudly.

For some reason, several scholars suddenly felt a strange feeling from the bottom of their hearts, they all bowed slightly towards the gate of the mansion, and then walked over with light steps.

It wasn't until he was far away that Song Shusheng let out a long breath and said, "This mansion makes people feel...uh..."

"Respect!" Wei Xiucai spat out two words lightly.

"Yes, yes, this is it. However, it's really strange. He is just an old man who looks at the gate, but he looks unusual." Tang Scholar echoed.

Wang Shusheng said with a smile, "Brother Tang, you can't underestimate this old man. Maybe he knows how to learn calligraphy, but we may not be able to compare with him."

Scholar Song looked unconvinced, "Brother Wang said that, isn't it a bit too much? Although we are not as hardworking as Brother Wei, we have studied for more than ten years. Isn't it better than a Old janitor?"

Wang Shusheng smiled gently and did not refute. He just led them around the house, followed the field path through the bushes, and finally arrived not far from the lotus pond.

Several people watched from afar the white lotus with the size of a sea bowl swaying slightly in the pond, the emerald green lotus leaves squeezed against each other, rustling like whispers, occasionally a lotus pod hid under the leaves, looking at the sky shyly like a girl .A simple four-cornered pavilion stands in the center of the pond so contentedly, and the small copper bells hanging from the corners of the pavilion are singing sweet songs with the breeze.

Faced with such a beautiful scenery, how can anyone not be happy, especially when the tourists are still a few scholars who think they have extraordinary literary talents, and they don’t care about their image, they almost trot on the wooden bridge to the gazebo, leaning on the wooden railing , It is necessary to make a poem.But I don't know if it was too much joy for a while, or I didn't have much ink in my belly. They pondered for a while, but they just popped up a few words like "Bi Ye, Gao Jie", and then they couldn't think of anything else.

Scholar Tang laughed, but he was very self-aware, turned around and patted Wei Xiucai, who was in a daze for some reason, "Brother Wei, we all have enough energy to spare, you are usually the best at making fuss, hurry up and do something for this beautiful scenery." One article is not in vain for our visit here today."

Wei Shusheng sighed softly, and actually said seriously, "After all, in the middle of June in Xiaochi,
The scenery is not the same as the four seasons.The lotus leaves in the sky are infinitely blue, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun. "

After hearing this, Tang Scholar looked at each other for a while, and then held the folding fan and tapped his palms to express their love.

Scholar Song asked with a smile, "Brother Wei's words, did they imitate the style of Han Yuefu?"

Chang Scholar repeated a few sentences slowly, raised his head and said loudly, "Brother Wei is worthy of being called a genius. Although these four short sentences sound extremely simple, anyone who listens will feel like they are in the scene." Especially the last line, "The lotus flower is so red in the reflection of the sun". It is so beautiful and appropriate, it is really a good sentence!"

Wei Xiucai waved his hands with a wry smile after hearing what they said, "You guys are embarrassing me, how can a fool like me write such fresh and refined words and sentences. Look at the top of your head." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand Pointing to the hoarding on the top of the gazebo, he said, "The words and sentences I just read are engraved here."

Everyone quickly looked up, and sure enough, the four poems that Wei Xiucai read just now were engraved on it without missing a word, and the pen was elegant and elegant, obviously it was written by a woman.
