Xiangye

Chapter 62

On New Year's Eve, Gao Wen was very drunk. When he woke up, his brain hurt so badly that he couldn't remember what happened during the thirty nights.

On the first day of the new year, the tailor brought over the clothes sewed for Yun Molei, took the wages handed over by Gao Wen, and kept shaking his head: "Mr. Gao, the maid you bought is strong and able to work. But it’s just too costly for clothes, so it’s not worth it!”

After Yun Mole put on ordinary women's clothes, Gao Wen always felt that there was something wrong, anyway, it just didn't please the eyes, so it would be better to let her wear Taoist robes, which would look heroic.

Strange to say, Yun Mole changed the laziness of the previous few days from the first day of junior high school, started cleaning the yard, and started cooking.As for the pot of pig food-like batter she made, Gao Wen was insensitive.

Duzhi County wants to rest until the fourth day of junior high school. The Gao family is an outsider and has no relatives in Hancheng.Gao Wen was free immediately, except for going to his mother's place every morning to say hello, he stayed in the room during the day and wrote manuscripts.

The third episode of "Journey to the West", which Yu Xingyan promised, has not been delivered, and the old man also sent someone to urge it.

Gao Wen thought about buying a piece of land in the city and building a house for his mother as soon as he got the money for the third episode.

After writing like this for three days, it was finally okay, so I took the manuscript and went to Linlang Bookstore.

Seeing the manuscript, Yu Xingyan was overjoyed, and hurriedly collected it with great care. He also said that the second episode of "Journey to the West" had already been printed, and it was very popular.As before, most of them were exchanged for gold, and they will be sent to Gao Wen's mother later.In addition, the change will not be exchanged, and it will be made for Gao Wen.

Then he handed over the account book to Gao Wen.

While Gao Wen was reading the account, Yu Xingyan was not in a hurry to read the manuscript, but picked up a book and read it intently.

Gao Wen was curious, and stretched his head over, but saw that it was a collection of contemporary essays. The title was "Confucius climbed Dongshan and Xiaolu". This title comes from "Mencius? Heart", the original text is: Xiao Lu, climbed Mount Tai and made the world small, so those who look at the sea can hardly be regarded as water, and those who swim in the gate of a sage can hardly be described. There is skill in observing water, and one must observe its waves. The sun and the moon are bright, and the light must shine. Flowing water is also a thing, It’s not good if you don’t make progress; the ambition of a gentleman is in the way, and if you don’t make rules, you can’t achieve it.”

This is a famous article in "Mencius", which must be read by any college student who learns Chinese in later generations, let alone the ancients.

Because of this, this sentence is also a common stereotyped essay writing topic, just like "Unforgettable Day", "The Most Unforgettable Thing", "My Best Friend Xiao Ming" in the composition of elementary school students. There are iconic characters in the composition, sometimes they are noble students with high moral character, and sometimes they are mischievous and mischievous children, who have been shot countless times.

Although the topic "Confucius Waiting for Dongshan and Xiaolu" is a bad street, it is strange to say, but it is often used as a topic in the imperial examinations, and the same is true for "Only Women and Villains" and "Xue Er".Any scholar who has done these topics does not know how many times in his life.

It is precisely because there are too many times of writing, it is difficult to write well if you want to write new ideas.

Some examiners like to come up with such uncommon topics as the upper section of the tower and the lower section of the tower, but some people choose this kind of topic.In fact, this kind of essay is the most difficult to write. If you are not careful, you will be ignored by the examiners.

Gao Wen had been compiling the book "Compilation of Ancient and Modern Stereotyped Essays" for several months before the time travel. He also had a strong interest in Chinese studies before, and he was familiar with contemporary prose.

After looking at it twice, I felt that the article Yu Xingyan was writing was unsightly and difficult to swallow.In fact, this is also understandable. When Gao Wen compiled that book, he had all the works of masters of writing such as Gu Xiancheng, Zhao Nanxing, and Gao Panlong, the elders of Donglin.Just as one person eats too much at Michelin's restaurant, he doesn't like the usual General Tso's Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken.

Immediately shook his head.

Yu Xingyan had sharp eyes: "Why are you shaking your head?"

Gao Wen didn't answer, and joked with a smile: "The old man hasn't touched stereotyped writing for more than ten years, why are you interested today?"

Yu Xingyan blushed, looked around, and saw that no one else was there.Then he said: "This year is the first year of Jingtai, and the new emperor ascends the throne. According to the court election system, Enke will be opened. After all, this old man was born as a scholar, so he was a little unwilling to give up. I took a few collections to read and wanted to give it a try." Compared with the three-year imperial examination, Enke is less difficult and admits more people.More importantly, once the Chinese style is adopted, it is the emperor's disciple, and the promotion into the officialdom is faster than that of ordinary officials.

Gao Wen was also considered an expert in stereotyped essays, and said with a smile: "Mr., with all due respect, this article is really not very good. Even if you figure it out thoroughly, you won't succeed in the examination room."

Yu Xingyan was a little annoyed: "Gao Xiaoguan, you are not a scholar. How can you recognize the beauty of this article? The scriptures and words are different. Don't talk nonsense. It is a Chinese-style work. If other scholars listen to it, it may cause trouble.”

After all, Gao Wen was a young man, so he was dissatisfied. He said with a smile, "Old man, I also went to school for several years, and I also wrote a few stereotyped essays. It's a pity that because of my status, I can't take the imperial examination. This article breaks the question It didn’t work out, and I didn’t know what happened to the seat of the township examination, so I took him away.”

Yu Xingyan snorted: "Gao Xiaoguan be careful, you don't understand. This problem is relatively common, but it seems that people don't have to work hard to carry water. I'm afraid it may not be as good as him if you replace it." better."

Gao Wen laughed: "What's so difficult about this? It's just a matter of solving the problem. Just look at me." After all, he was a young man who wanted to show off. After speaking, he picked up a pen and wrote on the paper: "The great sage is as great as the holy way. .It must be drafted first and then challenged.”

This is to break the title, and the next is to inherit the title: "There is nothing greater than the holy door, and You Zhisi knows it."

Gao Wen became interested in this writing, and wrote it down quickly in cursive all the way, entering the opening part: "The meaning is: Confucius, with the posture of the sky, inherited the unity of the saints, and there is no one greater than the Tao."

Thanks to the rush to draft during this period, Gao Wen's hand speed is extremely fast now, and he can be called a coding machine.I wrote it in one go, and after only a moment I got to the part about the buttocks, when I suddenly cried out in my heart, I stopped writing.

It turned out that by accident, Gao Wen copied Qian Fu's article.

Qian Fu was the Huiyuan in the third year of Hongzhi, and later won the champion in the palace examination.This article is exactly the Huiyuan article during the examination.At this moment, I was fighting with Yu Xingyan for copying out such a good article, wasting it, wasting it.

Scholars in this era have been dealing with stereotyped essays all their lives, so Yu Xingyan was immediately fascinated by how he didn't realize the benefits of this essay.

When Dao Gaowen stopped writing, he suddenly yelled and commented: "The first work is divided into two parts, and the mountain and the sea are used as a counterpoint, and the last sentence is repeated. and also."

"The first three sentences in this section make the next sentence, so the text is in a frame. Wow..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Xingyan burst into tears, tears pouring out like a spring.

Gao Wen was shocked: "Mr., what's wrong with you?"

"Get out... get out... get out, I don't want to see you again!" Yu Xingyan stood up, kept pushing Gao Wen, and drove him out of the shop.

Then he cried out: "God, oh God, why... who is this... buddy, get on the board, close the door, and let the dog go!"
