Chapter 59: Are You Also Worthy of the Surname Zhao?
The next day, Zhao Shouzheng and his son got up early in the morning and dressed up seriously.
Zhao Shouzheng changed into a black Deng silk robe, tied a blue silk silk around his waist, and wore the same soap boots as an official, which was the most solemn dress for a prisoner in a country...... Usually, they wear blue shirts, and only when worshipping the saints of Confucius do they change into round-necked robes similar to those of the lifters...... This is also what distinguishes them from the students.
Zhao Hao, with the assistance of Fang Wen, stepped on a brand-new tiptoe, put on plain small sleeve yarn silk pleats, and put on a soft-winged scarf with lacquer yarn. When Fang Wen smoothed the pair of long soft wings to the back of his head, a gentle and polite young man appeared in front of everyone.
"Okay." Zhao Shouzheng looked at his son for a long time, his eyes turned red and said: "Who is young and romantic?" My son has grown into a ......"
Fan Datong, who came early today to join in the fun, also gave a thumbs up and praised: "The virtuous nephew, if you go to the Qinhuai River, you must be riding a horse and leaning on the bridge, full of red sleeves!" β
"You don't want to take my son badly!" Zhao Shouzheng was furious when he heard this, glared at Fan Datong fiercely, and then instructed Zhao Haoqian: "You are young, you can't go to that kind of place." β
"We're going to apprentice, aren't we?" Zhao Hao was made ridiculous by these two off-line brothers.
"Oh, yes, let's go!" Zhao Shouzheng slapped his head, hurriedly picked up the three kinds of apprenticeship of dried meat, lotus seeds and celery, and went out first.
Jerky is a thank you teacher, and lotus seeds imply pity, and it also means painstaking teaching. Celery means to be diligent in karma.
Zhao Hao followed behind with the remaining three, namely the dragon eye stem that implies enlightenment and wisdom; Red dates that imply early high school and red beans that imply grand exhibitions.
The father and son took these six rites and walked out of the alley accompanied by Fan Datong and the Gao family's father and son.
As soon as they arrived on the street, they heard a thud, and a shining and blind tin umbrella opened, covering the father and son from the sun that was not fierce.
In fact, according to Zhao Hao's meaning, he should rent a shoulder for his father to sit on today, but it is too close to Zhao Jin's house, and it is less than a hundred steps on foot.
It's so close that people have to lift it, and they can't tell whether it's a music or a monkey.
~~
After crossing the bridge, Zhao Jin lived in the alley, and the old Jiachang also lived in this alley.
Zhao Jin's family was not in Nanjing, so the old captain called his son Yu Peng as a welcome to Zhao Jin. also greeted more than a dozen neighbors to give the old man a strong scene.
"Here, hurry up and firecrackers!" The chubby Yu Peng saw the Zhao family's father and son coming over, and hurriedly shouted.
The sound of crackling firecrackers resounded in the streets and alleys, attracting more crowds of people to watch the excitement. Everyone wants to see, what does the freshly baked richest man in Caijia Lane look like?
Of course, more importantly, it is said that after the apprenticeship is completed, there will be a table for everyone to eat.
This scene made Zhao Hao roll his eyes, this is not a marriage, why are so many people watching the excitement? Won't Ben Gongzi still have to play monkeys to show them later?
But at this point, he had no choice but to be like a marionette, and let Yu Jiachang, who served as the master of ceremonies, enter Zhao Jin's courtyard.
The place where Zhao Jin lives is very shabby and dilapidated, similar to Zhao Hao's original family. It is not surprising that the army did not have any income except for a little rations. Zhao Jin is very old, so he can only barely make ends meet by writing for others and copying books.
He attaches great importance to today's day, and when he came back last night, he cleaned up the yard with Yu Peng, and moved tables, chairs, desks, and futons from Yu's house. Yu Jiachang also bought him incense candles and holy icons, and came over to help arrange them before dawn.
However, Zhao Jin has been through strong winds and waves after all, and at this moment he has completely calmed down, wearing a patched Confucian robe, wearing a half-new Tang scarf, sitting next to the desk dedicated to the statue of Kong, looking at Zhao Hao's father and son who entered the door with six rites.
Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly took the first two steps, presented the post of binding and apprenticing with both hands, and said loudly:
"Life is young and ignorant, there are good fathers and brothers, strict teachers and friends outside, and there are no unsuccessful. The dog dropped out of school, fortunately met Zhao Gong, and did not give up, collected under the wall, and taught earnestly, so that he could correct his interests and the way of the sages. Meals are respectful, and filial piety will be dedicated. β
Zhao Jin took the post with both hands, and symbolically opened it, only to see Zhao Hao's name, hometown, Nian Geng, and the name of his father Zhao Shouzheng written on it.
Then he froze......
Zhao Shouzheng saw that he stayed there like a clay sculpture and didn't take the jerky in his hand, so he couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied in his heart: 'This teacher is a little naΓ―ve, don't bring my son into a little Hanhan......
Zhao Hao was hung behind, neither standing nor kneeling, so he had to cough awkwardly and said, "Mr. is above, the student kowtowed to you." β
As soon as he lifted the hem of his robe, he was about to kneel down for Zhao Jin.
"Wait!" Zhao Jin bounced up from the chair as if he had been stung by a scorpion, supported Zhao Hao who was about to bend his knees with both hands, and asked in a deep voice:
"Dare to ask Ling's grandfather's name, but there is a word?"
"Hey, how did Zhao Gong know?" Without waiting for Zhao Hao to answer, Zhao Shouzheng asked curiously: "My father is a book, but there is a word." β
"You are the descendants of the Great Song Taizu?" Zhao Jin asked.
"That's nature!" Zhao Shouzheng arched his hands to the north, and said with a proud face: "I am the twenty-sixth grandson of Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty!" β
"Uh, this teacher, can't worship it......" Zhao Jin was slightly embarrassed and returned the post to Zhao Shouzheng with both hands.
There was silence in the field, and everyone was stunned.
Zhao Hao couldn't figure it out, and secretly shouted in his heart, could it be that it was for the sake of the mountains and the failure of the work, and this cold stove would not burn out?
The next scene stunned him and startled everyone.
I saw Zhao Jin smooth his sleeves with both hands, push the gold mountain and pour the jade pillar, and knelt in front of Zhao Shouzheng.
"Uh, what is Zhao Gong doing?" In an uproar, Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly helped Zhao Jin with both hands, trying to pull him up.
Zhao Jin was very resolute, kowtowed heavily to Zhao Shouzheng, and said loudly: "Nephew, Zhao Jin, the twenty-seventh grandson of Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty, meet my uncle!" β
"What?"
"What?"
In the midst of everyone's discussions, Zhao Hao blinked his eyes and looked at Zhao Jin, but he didn't expect this old man to be his own generation, no wonder he didn't dare to be his teacher.
"Then are you from the Yan Dynasty or the Wei Dynasty?" Zhao Shouzheng is there to be investigated, the surname Zhao in the world has a long history, but not everyone can have anything to do with the Great Song Dynasty.
King Yan does not refer to Zhu Di, but Zhao Dezhao. King Wei is Zhao Defang, these are the two branches left by Zhao Kuangyin.
"Yan Wang is a family." Zhao Jin said, and further said: "Nanping Gong Garden Zhao." β
"Oh? The more I talked, the closer it became. Zhao Shouzheng was pleasantly surprised: "We are also Garden Zhao." Then our seniority words should be 'standing and saying Shicheng', why are you the brocade of golden silk? ββ
Zhao Jin wrote a silk word on the ground with his fingers, and then wiped off the top and the towel on the bottom.
Isn't the rest just a 'ζ°' word?
"Hide deep enough." Zhao Shouzheng nodded at this time, and received a great gift from this fifty-year-old nephew.
Then Zhao Hao, under the order of Zhao Shouzheng, saluted Zhao Jin's peers.
Zhao Jin also returned the courtesy, calling him 'virtuous brother', and the old-fashioned color on his face was gone, replaced by cordiality from the heart.
Zhao Hao suddenly realized, no wonder that day, he was close to Zhao Jintao, saying that he couldn't write two Zhao characters in one stroke, when everyone was a family five hundred years ago, people didn't pick up their own stubble at all.
To put it bluntly, you also deserve the surname Zhao?
Now seeing that he is really worthy of the surname Zhao, Zhao Jin naturally lost the arrogance of rejecting people thousands of miles away, took his hand, and affectionately said something like 'Kunzhong should move around often', 'brotherhood cannot be wasted', etc., which made people listen to the words that made goosebumps rise.
Zhao Hao only felt unbelievable, how many generations have passed for him? Can they still be considered brothers?
However, this cold stove seems to be burning...... Right?
