Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 68 The grass snake buries the ashes

In the yamen of the Great Xia Dynasty, as in later generations, going to work in the first month was not serious about ordering.

Lai Shangrong also knew the unspoken rules. Seeing that the afternoon had passed and his subordinates could not leave early, he walked around the duty rooms and called the coachman Hu Sida at the Yamen gatehouse to go back home.

As soon as I got home, I heard from the concierge that the second master of Rong Mansion had invited me.

So he changed into casual clothes and went to Rongfu.

When he entered Rong Mansion, he didn't even look for Jia Zheng. As usual, he went to Jia Mu first for a formality.

As soon as I arrived in front of Rongqing Hall, I suddenly saw two beautiful figures standing at the door of Jia Mu's blue gauze cabinet.

"No matter how difficult it is, it's worth learning! It's just a combination of qi, chen, zhuan and qi, chen and zhuan. There are two pairs of chen and chuan, flat tones, imaginary to solid, solid to imaginary. If there is a strange sentence, even flat, emptied and true will not be correct. Made it."

After hearing the conversation, Lai Shangrong couldn't help but wonder, could it be that by starting a poetry club by himself, he actually delayed Xiang Ling's poetry learning?

So he walked slowly without any hurry.

"It's strange that I often read a book of old poems and read one or two of them. Some of them are right and very good, and some are wrong. I also heard someone say, 'One, three, five, it doesn't matter, two, four, six,'" I also read the poems of the ancients. Some of them are correct, but some of them are wrong, so they are confused every day. Now when I listen to you, it turns out that these style and rules are the last thing, as long as the words and sentences are novel and novel."

After hearing the conversation clearly, Lai Shangrong was not in a hurry to go to Rongqing Hall and turned to the door of Bisha Cupboard.

As he walked, he smiled and said: "This is exactly the truth. Words are the last thing after all, and the intention is the first thing. If the meaning is true, it is good to connect the words without modification. This is called 'not harming the meaning with words'."

When they saw it was him, they said hello to each other.

He can also compose poems, but he mainly focuses on test poems for examinations. The most important thing about test poems is neatness. This is a complete copy of Daiyu's rhetoric.

Fortunately, he is thick-skinned and still behaves calmly when plagiarizing in person.

Daiyu didn't know that he was copying her own words, so she just nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the two of them were not talking, Lai Shangrong was silent for a moment, and then said: "Ms. Xiangling, could it be that you are looking for Miss Lin to learn poetry? Then you have really found the right person!"

Daiyu was busy being humble for a moment, and then said: "Why don't you come and explain to Xiangling, Brother Lai!"

If Lai Shangrong was asked to compose poetry, he might still be a little scared, but if he were asked to explain, he would have the opportunity to be opportunistic.

After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "You must have heard of the Yellow Crane Tower song that prompted Shixian to write, right?"

Daiyu was thoughtful after hearing this, while Xiangling nodded.

Seeing this, Lai Shangrong talked eloquently: "There are three Yellow Cranes in the first four sentences. This is the so-called 'Threefolds of Yellow Cranes'. Overlapping words has always been a taboo in poetry, but here three Yellow Cranes are used in succession." , such boldness is unprecedented.

The couplets of rhymed poetry have always emphasized antithesis, but "the yellow crane is gone and never returns, and the white clouds are empty for thousands of years" not only does not count as antithesis, but Kong Youyou also uses three flat tails.

Strictly speaking, only the neck couplets in the whole poem are neatly matched. Although these lines violate taboos everywhere, they are completely natural and have profound artistic conception. Even poetry immortals would sigh for themselves.

This means that the novelty of words and sentences comes first, and the words do not harm the meaning! "

After hearing this, Daiyu sighed: "It's strange that they all say that Brother Lai can teach his disciples. It's easy to understand by using poetry as an example."

Then Xiang Xiangling smiled and said, "Why don't you take Big Brother as your teacher?"

Lai Shangrong was secretly happy in his heart, and said: "Forget the inconvenience of becoming a teacher! I'm afraid Miss Lin knows these principles of poetry better than me. I just taught them in school and figured out a set of examples."

He turned to Xiang Ling and said, "If there is anything you don't understand, you might as well ask me!"

Xiangling nodded quickly to thank her, and Lai Shangrong said goodbye and left Rongqing Hall.

As soon as I stepped into Rongqing Hall, I heard a burst of hearty laughter.

Hearing that the voice was not that of Wang Xifeng, Lai Shangrong couldn't help but wonder. After going around the screen, he saw a girl in red surrounded by Baoyu, Baochai and Sanchun.

There was no time to take a closer look, so he bowed to Jia Mu first and then winked at Yuanyang.Then Mrs. Wang laughed and said, "These are the two aunts of the Shi family!"

After seeing each other one by one, Lai Shangrong also guessed that the girl in red was Shi Xiangyun.

Jia Mu smiled and asked, "You came alone?"

"Uncle Shi sent someone to call me over!"

After replying to Jia Mu, Lai Shangrong quietly looked at Xiangyun.

Because his back was facing away, he couldn't see his face, but his mantis-shaped body with the waist of a wasp and the back of a crane would at least be at the level of a supermodel in future generations.

A wasp's waist is thin, an ape's back is narrow, a crane's legs are long, and a mantis's legs are well-proportioned. They really have a thin waist and a narrow back, and are lighter.

Especially those long legs, even and slender, the so-called legs are nothing more than that.

Lai Shangrong also went to clubs and ordered young models in his previous life, but those so-called models pale in comparison to Xiangyun.

In the Red Mansion, the only one who can compare with her is Wang Xifeng, who is known as the fairy concubine.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Sister Feng, who was standing beside Jia Mu, and she gave him a provocative look in return.

Just when I was thinking about whether I had anything or not, I heard Jia Mu say: "Since I have something to do with you, just go ahead!"

Lai Shangrong could only say goodbye and leave.

When I came to the side hall of Rongxi Hall, I saw Jia Zheng and the two brothers Shi Nai and Shi Ding.

Jia Zheng pulled him to the table and said, "Your two uncles have something to ask you!"

Shi Ding said: "We heard that my nephew's state-owned papermaking workshop is allowed to become a shareholder, so we wanted to ask!"

Then I asked Lai Shangrong about investing in shares. This was a good thing and his job. Lai Shangrong explained everything to the two of them in detail.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were not satisfied with the proportion of investment and allotment of shares. Lai Shangrong also heard from their conversation that the two of them were not well off.

Then he smiled and said: "If you are not satisfied with the allotment of shares in this paper-making workshop, there is nothing you can do now. I am developing glass over there. If you buy shares in advance, you can get more shares!"

He was doing this entirely for Xiangyun's sake, but he didn't know that the two of them were shaking their heads like rattles.Instead, Lai Shangrong was asked to give him slightly more quota for the papermaking workshop.

This touched Lai Shangrong's bottom line. The two of them were not wealthy, so they immediately lost their temper.

Without further ado, Lai Shangrong picked up his wine glass, confessed his crime to Jia Zheng and left.

As soon as he left the side hall, he saw a slim figure coming out of the Ludinger room nearby, and stopped him. At a glance, he saw that it was Aunt Zhao.

"Eh!" Lai Shangrong secretly rejoiced. Could it be that she measured her size a while ago and now she wants to express her feelings to him?
"Brother! Give me two pieces of that soap tomorrow. I'll ask Huan'er to get it from your house!"

Um?what's the situation?
Realizing that there was a discrepancy with what he had thought, Lai Shangrong smiled and said, "My ex gave the old lady and my wife ten yuan, you go and get it from them!"

Lai Shangrong still has soap, but he just doesn’t want to give it to her. Of course, it’s not that he can’t give it to her, but he can’t give it to her in vain.

Aunt Zhao lowered her voice and said, "Don't think I don't know what you did that night. If you don't give it to me, go tell the master!"

Speaking, he puffed his chest towards Lai Shangrong.

Lai Shangrong felt guilty for a while, that is, Mrs. Wang and others are now in Rongqing Hall, and no one is passing by at this moment, otherwise this will be seen and heard...

"piece!"

After saying that, she ignored Aunt Zhao and walked away.
