MTL - Enter the Room-Chapter 253
Yuan Yunzhong snorted softly and stopped talking.
A group of people sat down in the pavilion on the back mountain.
At this time, the female family members have already inquired about the living habits and personality hobbies of each other's children, but Xiong Wenqing still needs to pass the test of the Song family before "raising his head to marry a daughter and bowing his head to marry a wife."
Fortunately, Grandpa Song Shishi often did these things. After seeing everyone sitting down, Xiong Wenqing ordered the servants to boil water and make tea with a wink, and arranged for people to stand guard at the intersection so that no strange men would break in and make people feel uncomfortable. He put the snacks and fruits he had bought before on a plate and sent them to the people of the Song family. He behaved very prudently. It can be seen that the Xiong family spent a lot of effort in cultivating him.
Master Song Shiyi nodded again and again, and asked about Xiong Wenqing's daily life.
Xiong Wenqing obviously came prepared, with a clear and humble voice: "Mr. Xixi was invited at home, and I am currently reading "Spring and Autumn" with him, and I am going to take the boy's exam next year.
"When I was resting, I would follow my father to the fields for a walk, and I would help the steward at home to patrol the mountains or collect rent during busy farming and autumn harvest."
For people like them, children should be like this.
The talent for reading is naturally required, but if you don’t have the talent for reading, then reading is just to understand the truth. The important thing is to follow the elders to learn how to manage the family business.
Grandpa Song Shishi was even more satisfied, and looked at Qian Shi and nodded slightly, indicating that Xiong Wenqing had passed this test.
Qian also felt satisfied.
Xiong Wenqing is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has clear eyesight, quick-witted actions, and a smart and capable child at first glance.
She also nodded slightly towards Grandpa Song Shiyi.
This matter is done!
The members of Xiong's family and Mr. Yan and his wife couldn't help but smile when they saw it, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Who knew that Yuan Yunzhong’s voice suddenly sounded in the gazebo: “Are you reading “Spring and Autumn”? “Zuo Zhuan”, “Gongyang Zhuan” or “Gu Liang Biography”?”
He asked Xiong Wenqing unhurriedly: "Aside from "Spring and Autumn", what other books have you read?"
It looks like Xiong Wenqing is about to test the school's knowledge.
The hearts of all the people present here suddenly lifted up, and all eyes fell on him involuntarily.
In terms of learning, not to mention the people present, even in the entire Liang County and the entire Wuyuan, there is probably no one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
The reason why the people in the Song family were nervous was that they were afraid that Yuan Yunzhong would get Xiong Wenqing out of the question—the Song family came to marry the Xiong family, not to make enemies. What good would it do for the Song family to embarrass Xiong Wenqing on such an occasion? ?
The Xiong family is also afraid that Xiong Wenqing will not be able to answer the questions Yuan Yunzhong asked—although everyone knows that Xiong Wenqing's knowledge is definitely not as good as Yuan Yunzhong's, but today is the day when Xiong Wenqing is seen by the heroine. Embarrassed in front of the woman?
Everyone is anxious.
Only Xiong Wenqing, although a little nervous, still answered Yuan Yunzhong's words as generously and decently as possible: "When I was enlightened, I read three hundred thousand, and then I read "University", "The Doctrine of the Mean", "The Great Learning" according to my husband's instructions. The Analects, Mencius, Zhouyi, Shangshu, Book of Songs, Book of Rites, and Spring and Autumn Annals. The Master said that the Spring and Autumn Annals is in Zuo Zhuan, so students are taught to read Zuo Zhuan."
Three hundred thousand refers to the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Surnames", and "Thousand Family Poems".
"Zuo Zhuan" is "Chun Qiu Zuo Shi Zhuan", one of the three major annotations of "Spring and Autumn".
Yuan Yunzhong nodded indifferently when he heard the words, and said: "That's right! "Zuo Zhuan" interprets the scriptures with facts. Beginners should start with "Zuo Zhuan", and then read "Gongyang Zhuan" and "Guliang Biography."
"Yes!" Xiong Wenqing said, respectfully, "Master also said so."
Yuan Yunzhong nodded, and said: "Your master has treated you well."
Master Xiong hurriedly said: "He is a failed scholar who has failed many times."
Yuan Yunzhong said: "Some people can't read by themselves, but they can teach well!"
After hearing this, everyone in the room settled down again when they raised it, and looked at him with burning eyes, waiting for him to continue asking questions.
As a result... Everyone waited quietly for a long time, but Yuan Yunzhong was satisfied like a curious person. After asking such a sentence, there was no follow-up.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Seeing him, Song Jiyun stepped forward with a smile, and said, "Earlier, the abbot knew that Master Yuan was coming, so he specially asked the little novice to come over and invite Master Yuan to the meditation room for tea and hands-on talks. I will send Master Yuan there first, and you are excused !"
"Boss Song, you're welcome! You have to go to work on your work first. We just steal half a day, drinking tea and talking." Master Yan was the first to react, got up to answer quickly, and urged Song Jiyun to go quickly, " To save the abbot from waiting anxiously. He always likes to collect famous teas, since he invites you to drink tea, it is not rare, it is also extremely rare, you are lucky."
"Thank you!" Song Jiyun said, glanced at Yuan Yunzhong, and signaled Yuan Yunzhong to follow her.
Yuan Yunzhong did not show any more moths, and greeted Master Yan and others, and then left the pavilion with Song Jiyun.
Song Jiyun walked out of the shooting place angrily, feeling that the people in the gazebo could not hear his voice, so he lowered his voice and said to Yuan Yunzhong: "Why did you suddenly take the examination of the knowledge of the young master of the Xiong family?"
Yuan Yunzhong glanced at her and said, "I will test his knowledge? What do you think I can test him for?"
Song Jiyun was confused: "Then why did you ask him what books he has read?"
Yuan Yunzhong said nonchalantly: "I'll see if he has the guts to answer my question." He also said: "From now on, it looks pretty good!"
Is he helping her test her brother-in-law?
Song Jiyun looked at Yuan Yunzhong's still indifferent face, and blinked slowly.
In the gazebo, Master Xiong also recalled it.
He looked at his son who was humbly replying to Qian's words, and asked Master Yan quietly: "Master Yuan, doesn't it look like he and Boss Song are taking what they need?"
Seeing Xiong Wenqing's neither overbearing nor humble appearance, Master Yan smiled from ear to ear. Hearing the words suddenly, he answered absent-mindedly, "It's not what everyone needs." He immediately realized that he couldn't help restraining his smile. Said: "What do you mean?"
However, he couldn't help stretching his neck, looking at the backs of Song Jiyun and Yuan Yunzhong, who were gradually moving away.
The two walked side by side, Song Jiyun raised his head and said a word from time to time, Yuan Yunzhong must lean slightly and bow his head back to her.
That accommodating look is too obvious.
How can there be a little bit of what you want?
"Do you think Mr. Yuan...have you looked at Boss Zhong Song?" He was startled, and looked around, seeing that everyone's attention was on Song Jiyu who was talking to Mrs. Xiong tenderly with a flushed face. He couldn't help frowning, "Qi Dafei, this may not be a good thing!"
Especially when Song Jiyun was leading everyone in Jingdezhen to burn new blue and white flowers.
Although Yuan Yunzhong has a great future, but Song Jiyun's stay in Jingdezhen may not be bad.
Master Xiong scratched his head, feeling that things would not be so simple.
