Nongmen Shuxiangzhi returns to ancient writing books

Chapter 348: A Strange Woman in the World!
"Old Zhou, we didn't mean you. In the early years, you were asked to accept more students, but you refused. Back then, there were so many talented and good seedlings who came to visit your house and wanted to ask you to be their teacher. You are so good. Everyone has been driven away, and now it’s all over, and there’s not even a single student around!”

It was Huang Xing who spoke, "Look at me, there are still students by my side."

Bai Song: "Although I don't have students to accompany me all the time, a few of them in Beijing come to see me as an old man from time to time. Every time they come, they will bring good wine! Today I specially brought a jar of champion red, Let's try it in a while."

Yu Bin: "Those of my students are particularly diligent and studious, and one of them has already prepared a book to write about it. As a teacher, I am also very pleased."

Zhou Hai's goatee flickered, did these old fellows really come to see him?Obviously came here to show off!
Is it great to have students to accompany you?

Are there students who care about great things?

Are the students promising?

Seeing the happy and complacent looks of the three old friends, Zhou Hai remained silent.

Bai Song stood up and said with a smile, "Come here, try the Zhuangyuan red specially sent by my student. We old guys haven't seen each other for a long time."　
At this moment, the butler came over with Feng Zian and Chu Qianyue. Before the butler opened his mouth, he felt a gust of wind around him, and saw a little boy running to the gazebo.

"Teacher! Teacher! I miss you so much!"

Before Zhou Hai came back to his senses, a limp body stopped in front of him, "Teacher, how is your health? Is your back sore? Are your legs hurting? Why do I feel that Teacher has lost weight, right? Didn't you eat well?"

The immature voice is full of sincere worry. It is obviously just a little doll who has not grown up. This serious appearance is really cute. Several old gentlemen also have grandchildren in their families. Seeing the children of Chu Qianyue, they are all rare. Incredible.

Zhou Hai looked at the three old friends with a smile, "Let me introduce to you, this girl is my closed disciple, she is young, you should take care of her in the future."

You look at me, I look at you, this little girl is cute, but as a student, she is not so suitable.Not to mention a woman, she is still so young.

Zhou Hai directly ignored the eyes of several people, and turned to look at Chu Qianyue, "These are Huang Xing, Bai Song, and Mr. Yu Bin. They are all friends of the teacher. If you have any questions that you don’t understand, you can also ask them.”

Chu Qianyue gave the third recognition a junior salute very seriously, and called over one by one.

After Feng Zi'an greeted him, he left. After all, he was on official business.

Chu Qianyue tugged on Zhou Hai's sleeve, Zhou Hai bent over so that Chu Qianyue's little hand could be placed next to his ear, "Teacher, what should I do? I just gave you a gift, and I didn't prepare any other gentlemen."

Zhou Hai laughed hahaha when he heard it. He stroked his beard with one hand and said with a smile, "Tell me, what gifts did you bring for the teacher?"

Chu Qianyue snapped her fingers and said, "Mother made Peach Blossom Drunk, Pear Blossom Brew, Leng Meixiang, sorghum wine and burning knives, as well as date cakes and small cakes made by Niangxin. Originally, I wanted to get one with butter. Big cake, but, my mother is not in good health, I don't want to make my mother work too hard."

"There is also a set of Gentleman's Notes developed by my mother. My mother has shown it to me once. It is really rare and unparalleled in the world! There is such a copy in the whole world!"

Zhou Hai's smile became brighter. God knows how many days since Chu Chu came to the capital, he hasn't had good wine.

"Your mother has a heart!" Zhou Hai sighed, "Old Bai, today I will show you what fine wine is! Butler, bring up some of the cakes brought by the little girl, and pour a small pot of each wine. "

After the butler asked his servants to add chairs, he took orders and left.

"Old Zhou, my champion red was specially brought back from the south of the Yangtze River by my student. It is the craftsmanship of an old restaurant. It tastes pure, and it is not comparable to any wine!"

As Bai Song spoke, he drank half a glass, and with the look of enjoyment on his face, he knew that the wine tasted very good.

The other three people also took a sip when they heard the words, and Huang Xing finished it in one gulp, "As expected of the craftsmanship of the old winery, I heard that if you want to drink such a pure Zhuangyuanhong, you have to go to the old winery in person, even though the old winery is located in In Jiangnan, however, countless people who are good at wine still work hard and travel thousands of miles just to drink the champion red from the old winery."

Yu Bin put down his wine glass, "You are a good drinker, and your student has a heart, and even deliberately brought a jar from Jiangnan. This is not an easy task!"

Bai Song was very proud, "Old Zhou, what do you think?"

"Although the taste is good, it is much worse than the fine wine that Xiao Yueyue gave me." Zhou Hai commented mercilessly.

Bai Song's eyes widened, and he was very disconvinced, "I have tasted Bai Song wine for many years, and I have never tasted many wines that can surpass the old winery's No.

Huang Xing: "That's right, which wine is better, it's not up to you alone, it's up to all of us!"

Yu Bin directly took a wine jug from the butler's tray and poured a glass, "What are you talking about so much, I'll take a sip first."

After just one mouthful, Yu Bin was speechless.

Huang Xing and Bai Song saw it, and each of them also took a pot, poured a glass directly, and drank it down.

Huang Xing immediately put down his wine glass, "Good wine! Good wine! It is indeed much better than Zhuangyuanhong!"

Bai Song nodded again and again, not at all angry that his champion red was being compared, "Lao Huang, Lao Yu, let me taste your pot. There are five pots here, that is, five kinds of wine!"

The four of them tasted almost every kind of wine, except for the good ones, the three of them started to look at Zhou Hai with bright eyes.

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other. We've been friends for so many years. When we go back home, there's nothing else to do. Let me have a drink with Peach Blossom Drunk!" Huang Xing said.

"Leng Meixiang, I want Leng Meixiang!" This is Bai Song's words.

"Shooting knives is more suitable for me!" Yu Bin was not polite.

Zhou Hai could be as happy as he wanted in his heart, "Don't even think about it! This is my students' filial piety to me, and there is not much in total, but I still have to keep it for the guests!"

Speaking of students, the eyes of the three of them immediately focused on Chu Qianyue, accepting a girl as a student, is it because of the good wine?

Zhou Hai gave the three of them a blank look, "The little girl is very smart because of her wild thoughts."

The three obviously didn't believe it, but the little girl Chu Qianyue was very happy. She reached out and took a piece of jujube cake, and handed it to Zhou Hai's mouth in person, "Teacher, please try this piece of jujube cake. The pickled side dishes are delicious."

Zhou Hai laughed happily, "Come here, don't just drink and eat, Chuchu's craftsmanship is very good, and the things she makes are not available elsewhere."

Can't take the wine home, they just drink their fill here!
The idea is really good, but when they ate the snacks and side dishes brought by Chu Qianyue, they had already forgotten the idea just now.

Have you had enough?
They can come over to drink the wine tomorrow, but these pastries and side dishes definitely won't last, so it's better to eat first.

The result is that obviously the four old guys are gathering together, talking about the world, talking about knowledge, in short, drinking and chatting, but now, where there is no one wasting time talking, everyone is eating.

There is no way, the cakes made by Chuchu are very soft, very different from the current cakes, very suitable for the teeth of the elderly, and those small dishes are very refreshing and can relieve the greasy cakes, so it can be said that they are pastries best match.

Chu Qianyue just looked at the four people who could be her grandfather. They moved from the gazebo to the study. The four of them were all leaning on the soft couch, eating very satisfyingly.

Zhou Hai didn't expect these old friends to have such a big appetite, the pastries and side dishes on the table were all empty.

"Old Zhou, good wine and delicious food, you are not wronged as a student." Huang Xing said with emotion.

"Desire for appetite! Old Zhou, old Zhou, be careful that you will not be safe at the end of the festival!" Bai Song reminded.

Yu Bin didn't say anything, but just stared at Chu Qianyue, "Little girl, you just said that you gave your teacher a unparalleled gentleman's letter, and showed it to Grandpa Yu."

Chu Qianyue turned her head to look at Zhou Hai, "My mother made this after several months of research. Only this copy is for the teacher."

That look, that tone of voice, almost said directly, you can't grab it!
Yu Bin was really jealous of Zhou Hai this time. In his later years, he still received such a caring student.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Yu never steals other people's things."

Chu Qianyue looked at Huang Xing and Bai Song worriedly.

The two looked at each other, and being wary of a little girl, this feeling is really fresh.

Huang Xing: "Little girl, your grandpa Huang still doesn't like that little thing of yours!"

Bai Song just snorted softly, "We've lived for almost a lifetime, what good things haven't we seen? Not even the gift you gave your teacher!"

Only then did Chu Qianyue feel relieved, and brought the boxy wooden box she had been carrying with her to Zhou Hai, "A few young ladies came to our bookstore before because of the collection of poems, saying that those poems were from their participation in the poetry meeting. When I made it, my mother casually looked at the brochure they sent, and felt that the paper was too ordinary."

"My mother said that a good work should be matched with exquisite paper, so I developed a special kind of paper, which my mother called Junzijian. My mother said that the teacher was a scholar at the time, and he cared about the common people. It should be matched with a gentleman's letter."

Chu Qianyue's memory is definitely not so good. Even if she just heard it in a hurry, she can still remember clearly what Chu Chu said on weekdays.

Zhou Hai opened the wooden box, and there was a small stack of paper inside, which was the same size as normal book paper, but it was completely different from the paper on the market today.

I saw two ink orchids printed on the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the paper, which were transparent and delicate, and did not delay writing at all. This was the first time the four of them had seen such a unique paper.

Among them are also great calligraphers, and they are hard to find. However, even so, Bai Song has never used such beautiful and delicate paper.

He usually uses high-quality white paper without any pattern decoration. He is helping others to draw inscriptions. But like this, the paper itself has patterns and does not affect writing. Bai Song is the first in his life. See you once.

"Not only is there Molan, but there is also a pattern of green pine underneath." Huang Xing said.

"I still have the designs of Cangzhu and Samuume." Yu Bin raised the paper in his hand and said.

"Hey, hey, just look at it and forget it. This was given to me by my student. It's the only one in the whole world. It's so precious. If it's damaged, it will lose one. Do you know?"

Zhou Hai was so happy physically and mentally, Xiao Yueyue really gave him a face today!
Bai Song: "Old Zhou, we have been friends for so many years, I..."

Zhou Hai raised his hand to stop, "Impossible."

Bai Song blew his beard and stared, "I haven't said anything yet, you just say it's impossible!"

Zhou Hai squinted at him, "We've known each other for so many years, once you open your mouth, I will naturally know what your intentions are."

Bai Song was so angry that he didn't speak.

Huang Xing took the words, "Look at how many you have here, just give us a few, don't be so stingy!"

Zhou Hai was firm, "My student gave it to me, how can I pass it on to others? No, no!"

Chu Qianyue frowned, "The teacher said that a gentleman should keep his word, and you just promised not to steal things from the teacher."

Bai Song: "..."

Huang Xing: "..."

Yu Bin directly stopped his gaze on Chu Qianyue, "Little girl, do you still need a teacher? How do you see me?"

Chu Qianyue tilted her head and looked at him, "But I already have a teacher."

Yu Bin continued: "I play chess much better than your teacher, do you want to learn from me?"

"But, I already have a teacher." Chu Qianyue was very stubborn.

Zhou Hai looked at Yu Bin with a smile, "You old guy, you still want to steal students from me? Didn't you still look down on our little Yueyue just now?"

Yu Bin blushed and was out of breath, "Good wine, delicious food, and gentlemen's notes! I think about my teacher in everything. Please bring me more students like this!"

Bai Song also came over, "Isn't it Xiao Yueyue, Grandpa Bai can write very well, Grandpa Bai can teach you how to write!"

Huang Xing was afraid that he would be late, "Grandpa Huang is very good at drawing, he can teach you how to draw."

Zhou Haiqi raised his beard, "When did you guys become so thick-skinned? You all stand aside, Xiao Yueyue is my closed disciple, and you have no place!"

"Oh, I'm very busy, and I don't have so much time to learn so many things." Chu Qianyue said with a sigh, she was obviously a cute little girl, but she just pretended to be a little adult, so cute.

"You are only so old, are you busier than us?" Yu Bin asked with a smile.

"That's natural. I'm five years old today. I want to make money quickly and save more dowry, otherwise I won't be able to get married in the future!" Chu Qianyue said seriously.

Yu Bin couldn't help laughing out loud.

Bai Song asked curiously, "You little boy, how do you make money?"

Feeling that she was underestimated, Chu Qianyue sullenly said, "I go to the teahouse to tell stories every day, and I can earn 100 taels when I have a lot of them! However, my mother said that it is not good to keep telling stories. Mother hasn't told me yet, but I've thought of a good way these days."

"Our family opened a bookstore, which can also be engraved. I want to write the story into a storybook and divide it into many volumes, but I find that I can't write many words, so I want to draw pictures, plus I can write. Chinese characters, so that many children as old as me, or children younger than me, and even some people who don't know how to read, can understand it."

Chu Qianyue took out a small notebook from the sea, and looked at Zhou Hai with some embarrassment, "Teacher, can you help me take a look? My mother is sick and in poor health, and there are many things in the shop, I don't want to Make her work harder."

Zhou Hai rubbed her little head, full of comfort, "What a filial and good child, I am your teacher, you are my student, what you write, the teacher should read, don't be embarrassed."

In fact, Zhou Hai didn't take this matter seriously. No matter how smart Chu Qianyue was, she couldn't change the fact that she was only five years old this year.She has a superb memory and can retell the stories she heard from Chuchu in the teahouse, which he can understand.

However, if it is drawing pictures and writing scripts or something, it is impossible.

However, when Zhou Hai turned the pages of the book and looked at them one by one, his originally laughing expression suddenly changed, becoming serious and dignified.

Seeing his expression, several old friends came over one after another.

Huang Xing was the closest, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

Bai Song picked up the paper that Zhou Hai had read and put aside the desk, "Xiao Yueyue is still a child, Lao Zhou, you have to be tolerant! Be tolerant! Do you know that?"

Yu Bin squeezed to Bai Song's side, "Show me how bad the painting is, your complexion is so bad!"

The three of them originally squeezed over with the attitude of persuading Zhou Hai, but after passing them one by one, their expressions were as serious as Zhou Hai's.

In the spacious and bright bookstore, there was only the sound of flipping papers, and the atmosphere was solemn and a bit scary.

Chu Qianyue pursed her lips, "Teacher, I practice handwriting every day, but the handwriting I write is still not good-looking. I can't blame me. My mother's handwriting is also not good-looking. It should be that I didn't learn from my mother. Inherited talent for writing."

"My mother's painting is like this. Although my uncle and my uncle also taught me, that (gongbi painting) is too difficult. I can only draw the kind (sticky strokes) taught by my mother."

"Hahaha! I, Zhou Hai, received such an intelligent student in his later years. God treats me well!" Zhou Hai laughed wildly with the stack of papers in his hand.

This is the first time for the other three people to be Chu Qianyue. Although they envied Zhou Hai for getting so many good things before, they never thought it was wise for him to accept a girl as a student.

However, now a few people are really envious and jealous.

Zhou Hai doesn't have many students, but such a little girl has shown unprecedented talent. She has already started writing books at a young age. Given time, when she grows up, her future will be limitless!

"Old Yu, how is it? You are what you are? Your student who is preparing to write a book, this year has already passed. Look at my little Yueyue, she is only five years old! Five years old!"

Zhou Hai stretched out a palm, repeatedly emphasizing.

"Hey, my student is writing a book, and this girl is just writing a story book, which is used for entertainment and to pass the time. The nature is completely different, okay?"

Yu Bin held his face and said.

"Grandpa Yu, how can you say that? Are you discriminating against me? I think what you said is wrong." Chu Qianyue's immature voice was full of seriousness.

Yu Bin was slightly taken aback, he dared to say that he was wrong!How many years has it been since no one of the younger generation has denied his opinion face to face?

"Tell me, what's wrong with me? If you can convince me, I'll help you revise your script."

Chu Qianyue suddenly laughed, the big dimples are very cute, she stretched out her right hand, "It's a deal."

"It's a deal," there was a snap, and the rough palm met her chubby little hand.

"I know, it's great to write a book, just like the teacher has been staying in our village to write "The Art of Grafting", in order to benefit the people. But, Grandpa Yu, although those books are very reasonable, they can be understood They are all scholars, and only scholars can understand the truth, so it can only benefit scholars, so there are still some who are illiterate, or who know very few words, what should they do?"

Chu Qianyue spread her hands.

"My picture book is different. Look, there are so many pictures on it, even those who don't know how to read can understand them. I think that people who can understand my picture book must be better than those who can see those pictures. There are many books that talk about the big questions and the big principles."

"However, your picture book is just a story book after all. So what if you can understand it? Not only can it not benefit the common people, but it can't even benefit scholars. Although many people read it, it is meaningless."

Yu Bin said very seriously, he spoke very slowly, very straightforward, for fear that Chu Qianyue would not understand.

"Grandpa Yu, you have read it just now, don't you see anything? My picture book also makes sense. Look at Monkey King. In order to learn his skills, he went down the mountain and crossed the sea, and suffered a lot. But he didn't give up halfway, and finally succeeded in apprenticeship."

"This tells us that we will definitely encounter many difficulties in doing things. Only by persevering to the end and overcoming difficulties can we succeed."

Chu Qianyue started her retelling of Dafa, which was given to them after Chu Chu finished telling the story on the way to Beijing.

Yu Bin frowned and pondered, "Is there any more?"

"Sun Wukong learned his skills and went to heaven. He was dissatisfied with the life in heaven. He relied on his own ability to make a big peach feast. Those peaches bloomed every 3000 years and borne fruit every 3000 years. He also overturned the world. Shanglaojun’s alchemy furnace made a big disturbance in the heavenly palace, and was finally suppressed by the Tathagata Buddha at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain for 500 years.”

"This tells us that we can't do bad things just because we have some abilities. If we do bad things, we will definitely be punished in the end. Therefore, we must be kind to others."

The immature voice was like a drop of water, knocking on the hearts of the four of them in the study.

Yu Bin smiled, "You are right, but Grandpa Yu was wrong."

In the simple and straightforward stories, even illiterate people will be inspired after reading such stories, which is much better than writing books.

Chu Qianyue was a little embarrassed, "Actually, this is what my mother said, not my idea."

"I really want to meet your mother. She can make wine, cook food, and tell stories. I feel more comfortable with officials. And you have such a smart and lovely daughter. She is really a strange woman in the world!"

Yu Bin said with emotion.

Chu Qianyue smiled proudly, "My mother is very powerful. My mother can know everything! Besides, as long as it is something we want to do, my mother will never object."

"I'll hand over your picture book to the teacher. The teacher will help you correct it. However, the teacher needs to meet your mother and ask her a few questions." Zhou Hai said.

Chu Chu was checking the accounts for this period of time in the shop, when she saw her daughter walking in with a few hale and hearty old people.

"Mother, Uncle Hua just said that you can get out of bed and walk around, but he didn't say that you can work." Chu Qianyue said with a frown as she pressed the notebook on the counter with her toes.

"Then I will hand over these books to you, and you will help my mother to calculate?" Chu Qianyue smiled on her pale face.

"No problem, I'll count it now." Chu Qianyue ran into the counter, jumped onto her exclusive stool, took out a blank piece of paper, and began to count.

The four of them were very shocked. Although Zhou Hai knew that Chu Qianyue was good at arithmetic, she had to hand over all the accounts of a shop to her, and depending on the situation, such a thing was very common. Isn't she afraid of miscalculations? ?

Chu Chu brought the four of them to the pavilion in the backyard, "Don't worry, that girl is fast and careful in her calculations, and she has never made a mistake."

The corners of the mouths of the four couldn't help twitching, shouldn't you be the one who should be worried?This shop doesn't belong to them, and the miscalculated money doesn't belong to them, so what do they have to worry about!
