Chapter 7 Every year is different (2)

Several people stared at the pen in his hand carefully, and the first one was "vertical" in the upper left corner.

The second stroke is first a "horizontal",

Then stop and turn back

Another word "10,000" extended below...

Without looking at it, everyone guessed what the word was. Chen Yue's father Chen Li's face immediately sank. Even with his toes, he could think of what he would write next. Good boy dared to talk back!

Looking at the old father beside him looking at him with a smile, he seemed to have a little gloating in his eyes, and he felt that he was not ashamed of his face. He was not good at experiencing an attack in public, so he could only grit his teeth and stare at his son.

At this time, the second character has been written, which is a word "公", which is slightly different from the "公" in later generations, but the meaning is roughly the same.

After writing one or two words, even Zhang Xiaoyi on the side could tell what would be written later - "Scholars should treat each other with admiration for three days."

Sure enough, in just a moment, Chen Yue finished writing the last word, put away the pen and hung it on the pen holder, and blew the undried ink marks at the rice paper. The nine big words were in my mind, which was exactly "A gentleman should treat each other with admiration for three days after his separation"!

Looking at the newly completed work on the table with satisfaction, Chen Yue raised his head proudly, just in time to meet Chen Li's eyes that were about to eat people. He was so scared that he shivered and quickly bowed his hands and stood there.

It was also Chen Yue who was used to thinking in his previous life and did not care enough about the memories he inherited. Otherwise, he would know that in this Song Dynasty, where filial piety ruled the world, the reprimands of parents were definitely not as refuted as in his previous life. This nine-character poem, no matter who was present, was his resentment of Chen Li before, and used it to satirize Chen Li.

Chen Yan carefully read the words written by Chen Yue, nodded with satisfaction, and first said: "Shangwen, the words are indeed exquisite, but your father's previous words are not unreasonable. In the ninth chapter of the "Book of Filial Piety", the sage said: "The nature of heaven and earth is precious. People are noble. No one's actions are greater than filial piety. No filial piety is greater than strict father." Have you ever remembered the meaning of this sentence?"

Chen Yue looked solemn when he heard this, and respectfully bowed to Chen Li, "I realized I was wrong." Although the meaning of this sentence he wrote before was just to tell others that he was no longer the Chen Yue in the past, and he never thought that the nine words could be improved to the level of exaggeration, is the explanation useful at this time? At this time, it is obviously "faithful, lenient, and strict resistance."

Seeing that his son's attitude was pretty good, Chen Li's face looked a little better, but he still hummed: "Remembering your calligraphy practice this time, I have improved a lot, so I will not do anything for myself. Go back and use rice paper to copy the "Book of Filial Piety" justly, and then bind it into a book. If you can't write it well in the Lantern Festival in two days, don't go."

When practicing calligraphy, I usually don’t use rice paper directly. On the one hand, the price is too high, and on the other hand, it also means that in order to make good habits, I usually use breasted paper when practicing calligraphy. At this time, I asked him to use rice paper to copy it, so I asked him to use rice paper to complete it as a formal work.

"Ahem, that...it's done after binding and send it to my room. I'm going to check it out myself." Chen Yan added in time.

Chen Li rolled his eyes secretly, then changed his expression and said respectfully: "My father is old and should have more rest and recuperate. How can he deal with such troubles? Let's do it, my son." If his son copied the entire "Book of Filial Piety" and maintained his current level, it would be a good thing. If it was taken away by his father, it would be hard to ask for it again.

"Hmm? Do you think I don't know anything about it anymore and can't discipline my grandson?" Chen Yan raised his eyebrows, and the majesty he had left for many years as an official was born.

"My son dare not..."

Seeing that his father stood awkwardly and looked at him, and then looked at the old man Gu Pan Ziwei, Chen Yue quickly took a step forward, at least relieved the atmosphere and made up for his mistakes, so he said with a tough bullet:

"Writing is always a form that is verified by the heart. Everyone has their own opinions. It is better to just copy two copies in one form. How do I scold and teach my grandfather and father respectively?" This was so insincere. In fact, what he wanted to say most was to repeat the words of grandfather Chen Yan in the "Book of Filial Piety" to his father...

"Well, it's okay, you go back first. You'll copy it in a few days and send it here." Chen Yan nodded, waved his hand and asked Chen Qi and Zhang Xiaoyi to go out together.

After the three of them bowed and left the room, Chen Li immediately frowned and said, "Sir, what do you think?"

Chen Yan touched his beard, squinted his eyes and looked at the words left by Chen Yue on the table for a while and said, "In the past, Shangwen was always trembling when he saw you. I saw that he was extraordinary today and his words were well-founded, but it was very different from before."

Chen Li looked at the direction at the door and said, "Isn't it just a big difference? It's a completely different person. If a servant had not reported that he had humiliated the Zheng family's children in Futai Tower in public, I wouldn't have cared about it. Now I think about it, since Shangwen recovered from a serious illness, he said and done something like a different person."

Chen Yan waved his hand and said, "Getting enlightenment after learning from a few mistakes a few days ago, I think I should always know something after experiencing the things I did in the past, but this word... You checked the homework of Shangwen on weekdays. Did you have such writing skills in the past?" De Yong was Chen Li's name, with his name Li and his name De Yong.

Chen Li shook his head: "Don't say that he is so profound now, I'm afraid he can't even be considered a Zhongping."

"This..." Chen Yan picked up the rice paper on the table and shook it with his hands. "It's unreasonable. The word layout is exquisite and it is written in a grand and natural way. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it would have been written by a child at home. Could it be that the incense burner was smashed open?"

"I can only explain this..."

"Whether it was hidden in the past, or it was a good thing to be enlightened now. You should watch more every day. If he really is a prodigal son, find some time to talk to the Han family and re-arrange the marriage as soon as possible so as not to have any troubles."

"Okay, my son will go and do it after Lantern Festival."

"Also, Shang Wen on the Futai Tower today said that the Zheng family's child did that day, so you can also find out. If this is the case, they must ask them to give an explanation!" Chen Yan said it lightly before, and suddenly his eyes froze when he said here, which made Chen Li on the side feel anxious, "It is necessary for people to know that my Chen family is not easy to meet!"

"Yes, my son knows," Chen Li bowed and replied.

=======================================================

ps: There are many names in the Song Dynasty, which are very different from the language habits of self-proclaiming and now. I collected a little while searching for information before, and then I will find a simple and clear post to the work.

ps2: If you can still read it, please please collect it. This is really worth it, thank you.
