Zhang Rusheng and Zhang Qian got into Zhang Tianyuan's car, these three people surnamed Zhang got together today, and they have to say that it was fate.

It's just that when I saw the gift in Zhang Tianyuan's hand, I was a little helpless, although Master Yuanbo received gifts, he received some worthless things, such as pea yellow, snacks and fruits.

There are also some small animals or stuffed animals, which the master also likes.

In his living room and bedroom, in addition to calligraphy and painting, there are all kinds of toys and small animals. Whether it was a bear, a dog, a rabbit, a cat, a tiger, or a deer, all of them stared at him with big innocent eyes and looked at him curiously. Yuan Bo joked: "Animals are cuter than people. ”

At the event site to celebrate the 7o anniversary of Master Yuanbo's teaching in 2oo2, the students of the Imperial Capital Normal University gave him a cute plush toy "Winnie the Pooh", and during the meeting, the master couldn't help but stroke the plush toy with his hand again and again, like a child.

If Zhang Tianyuan bought those more than 100 yuan, even if it was a plush toy of a few hundred yuan, probably Master Yuanbo would not refuse, but Zhang Rusheng did not dare to guarantee this calligraphy and painting.

In his mind, it is absolutely impossible for a person of Zhang Tianyuan's status to use fakes to make up the numbers, so the painting in his hand must be of high value, at least more than 100,000 yuan, which is something that his teacher is absolutely unwilling to accept.

Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said: "This thing in my hand, if you say it's valuable, it's valuable, and if you say it's worthless, it's worthless." I bought this painting when I went to Myanmar to gamble on stones, and I thought it should be a masterpiece, but I couldn't be sure. I heard that Master Yuanbo is a master of appraisal, so let him help him identify it today. If he liked it, he gave it as a gift. If you don't like it, I'll just take it back. ”

"Whose work is it?" Zhang Rusheng asked casually.

"Chen Hongshou's. Zhang Tianyuan replied.

"Oh, Chen Hongshou, this is also a poor man, in his later years, he made a living by selling paintings, this fate is even more bumpy than the teacher, the teacher has always liked Chen Hongshou's paintings, especially the portrait of Qu Yuan, the teacher himself often compares himself to Qu Yuan, and feels that he is inferior to Qu Zi. should work harder, I think he really has a bit of a bent demeanor in his later years. But he can't see this thing, and I can't be sure, because the teacher is old, his physical function is not good, his eyes are very blurry, and his hands and feet are not dexterous, I hope you won't be disappointed......"

Zhang Rusheng sighed. He has always felt that when a person is over 80 years old, he is sinning, not living. He also thought about his future, maybe when he was in his seventies, he would simply find a place to die quietly. It does not drag down the younger generations, and it does not have to suffer.

Of course. This was just a thought, he saw Master Yuanbo's guilty appearance. I really can't bear it in my heart, so I have such a feeling.

The car stopped in the parking space of the Imperial Capital Demonstration University, and then Zhang Tianyuan followed Zhang Rusheng and Zhang Qian to the Little Red Building with gifts.

There are security guards downstairs, and now the Imperial Capital Demonstration University has regarded Master Yuanbo as a national treasure like a giant panda, after all, he is so old and has been teaching at the Imperial Capital Normal University, which is also a very valuable asset for this university.

After the security guard saw that it was Zhang Rusheng, he didn't say anything, but let them in, acquaintances are easy to do, and Zhang Tianyuan met this again.

"Do you know, the teacher is actually very hospitable, and he doesn't hate people coming to see him as outsiders say, but sometimes he is not in good health, his energy is not good, and he is unwilling to treat guests slowly, so he doesn't want to see people. Zhang Rusheng explained as he walked.

"Yes, yes, there is a very interesting thing, I still listen to Grandpa Yuanbo himself. Zhang Qian suddenly became interested, and said with a smile: "When he was sick, Grandpa Yuanbo posted a note on the door that 'Yuanbo hibernates, refuse to visit, knock on the door and push the door, and be fined one yuan', but after only one day, it was taken away from the collection, and since then, more people have come to 'visit', hehe, you say it's not fun." ”

"This shows that Master Yuanbo's handwriting is indeed good, others want it, even this casual thing, is regarded as a treasure of ink, rare and rare, if I can reach this level one day, my heart will be content. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile.

"Yes, as long as you can sum up your own style, you can. Zhang Rusheng nodded and said: "And even now, just your amazing imitation skills can make you an absolute master of calligraphy today. ”

"After all, it's someone else's, what kind of ability to talk about. Zhang Tianyuan shook his head with a smile and said.

"What you say is not right, many people start with imitation at the beginning, and then give up, because they can't imitate the calligraphy of their predecessors in place, so they have no choice but to retreat and add their own style, in fact, this is simpler than imitation. Zhang Rusheng shook his head and said.

Zhang Tianyuan still believes in what he said, if China's aircraft motive can be copied to the same as that of the United States, including the same level, then there is no need to work hard to develop it and go in its own direction.

After the three of them came to the Little Red Mansion, they knocked on the door, and an old man of sixty or seventy years old walked out and chatted with Zhang Rusheng with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, you are here." ”

"Grandpa, and me. Zhang Qian also walked over, grabbed the old man's arm and smiled.

"Okay, you're here to see the master, right? It's just that there is no one here, so you're very lucky. The old man said with a smile.

This old man was also a student of Master Yuanbo, and later he was assigned to work at Imperial Capital Normal University and achieved the position of professor, but later he willingly came to take care of Master Yuanbo, which still became a good story in Imperial Capital Normal University.

is also a disciple of Master Yuanbo, he naturally has a good impression of Zhang Rusheng and Zhang Qian, and often jokes, so he has long been very familiar.

"It's the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Teacher, is he in good spirits?" asked Zhang Rusheng.

"I'm going to eat a basket today, and he's in good spirits. This is what he used to eat, and now he thinks it's the most delicious. ”

As one of the ancient Han customs. It should be said that in many places, on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the whole family has to eat the folding basket together. The so-called folding basket. It is a hodgepodge of leftover meals from a few days together to clean up the New Year's goods.

In the past, Master Yuanbo didn't eat leftovers, and he was more optimistic, so he called it a folding basket, just like the New Year, but he actually ate very poorly.

Dust indoors, sweep the floor in the house, and pile garbage in the yard ready to "throw the poor". On this day, the beef and mutton shop will go to the horse temple to burn incense, because the sheep king, the ox king, and the horse king are all worshiped in the horse temple.

Generally, shops have to feast on the fourth night of the new year. Bonus packets.

In the past, the emperor had an old saying: "The sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, but the shopkeeper is afraid of the official words on the night of the fourth day of the new year." "There is wine and food at the banquet, and the custom after drinking is to eat steamed buns. At this time, the shopkeeper raised a glass to congratulate and said "hard work" to everyone, which is called "official language". After the official speech was finished, the steamed bun was served, and the shopkeeper personally clamped the steamed bun, and whoever put the steamed bun in the bowl was implied to have been fired. The dismissed person automatically packed his luggage and said goodbye after the meal, so this banquet is commonly known as "eating egg dumplings".

The fourth day of the Lunar New Year is when the gods return to earth from the heavenly realm. There is a saying that "send God early, receive God late", and the so-called sending God should start early in the morning. And it's not too late to pick up God in the afternoon. In terms of offerings, the three animals, fruits, wine and vegetables should be prepared, and incense and candles should be burned to burn gold clothes.

Zhang Rusheng heard that his teacher was in good spirits. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then greeted Zhang Tianyuan. So he went into the house and went to the second floor. This little red building has a total of two floors, there is a security guard at the door, the first floor lives the old man who takes care of the life of Master Yuanbo, who is the person just now, and the second floor is the residence of Master Yuanbo, whether it is work or rest, it is on the second floor.

After Zhang Rusheng arrived at the door of the second floor, he heard a cough inside, and he couldn't help frowning, this is a sign that the old man is not in good health, although he did not cough up blood, but his body is getting worse day by day.

After he rang the doorbell, a person came out of it, this was the nurse who took care of Master Yuanbo.

It's just a male nurse, about forty years old, not young, and it is said that he used to be a doctor, and he has a good way of dealing with some emergencies.

Originally, there was a female nurse here, but Master Yuanbo felt that this was not good, and he had true love for his deceased wife.

Yuan Bo once recalled: "My wife's name is Chen Baozhang, two years older than me, and she is also a Manchurian, and I used to call her sister." My mother and aunt fell ill in 1957, and my mother and aunt, who were seriously ill, were almost dependent on my wife to take care of them alone. As she grew older, she became thinner and thinner, and it was not until she was at the end of her life that she breathed a sigh of relief. I had no choice but to ask her to sit in a chair, respectfully call her 'sister,' and kowtow to her. ”

When Chen Baozhang, the wife of the master, was dying, he once said that once she passed away, she hoped that Master Yuanbo could find a companion to continue the strings. Master Yuanbo said that this is absolutely impossible, and he must be worthy of his wife who shares hardships. Zhang said, can you bet on that? Master Yuanbo said, yes.

After the death of his wife, many people did come to introduce the marriage to Master Yuanbo. The master said, "You are all out of good intentions to find a companion for me, and I don't think it's a companion, it's a "trip", not a companion, but a "trip." He also told the introducer that I had made a bet in front of my wife, and I would never lose my word.

Twenty years after his wife's death, the 85-year-old master Yuanbo got up in the middle of the night and wrote a "bet to win song". His purpose in composing this song was to comfort his deceased wife, and he fulfilled his promise, and he won the bet.

The male nurse came out and saw that it was Zhang Rusheng, so he smiled, obviously he also knew him.

"Teacher, how is he?" Zhang Rusheng asked again, after all, it is more reliable to ask professionals than unprofessional.

"Child, although I am old, I will not die so soon, come in quickly. Before the male nurse could speak, Master Yuanbo's hoarse but neutral voice sounded inside.

"Teacher, you can still hear my voice, Qianqian is also here, but this time we also brought another guest. Zhang Rusheng walked inside and spoke.

"Oh, there are guests, there are guests, this is the New Year, you see that I am very deserted here, hurry in, close the door, the teacher is afraid of the cold. The man inside said again.

"Grandpa Yuanbo, I'm here to greet you for the New Year, what about the New Year's money!" Zhang Qian stepped inside, greeted Master Yuanbo for the New Year, and said with a smile. (To be continued!)
