Lin Yanchao was about to shout loudly to take the thief, but when he took a closer look, he realized that it was Yu Qingzhou on the wall, and Zhu Xiangwen and Huang Biyou under the wall.

Zhu Xiangwen muttered there: "If you don't have one, you can have one red rotten meatloaf." ”

Lin Yanchao looked at it and walked under the wall and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Everyone was startled when they heard this, and they all made a silent gesture at the moment and said: "Yanchao be quiet, we will be finished when Zhaifu sees us." ”

Huang Biyou smiled and said, "Brother Yanchao, let's open a small stove, do you want to have some." This person's light cakes and vegetables, as well as fish balls, are really good. ”

"Didn't you eat my bare bread and vegetables, you were addicted to eating."

Zhu Xiangwen and Huang Biyou both snickered. Lin Yanchao couldn't help but be hungry and said: "Cheng, I'll also have a bowl of fish balls!" Then a vegetarian cake. ”

"Okay, okay, three bowls of fish balls!" Zhu Xiangwen said a word to Yu Qingzhou.

"Okay," the outsider agreed, "I'll pick up the bowl and spoon tomorrow!" ”

At that moment, Yu Qingzhou brought three bowls of fish balls from outside the wall, and everyone shouted vigorously, don't sprinkle the soup, sprinkle the soup, you will ask us to nibble on the cake for nothing.

Three bowls of fish balls are connected to a soup spoon, and three people pass one bowl at a time and place them next to the wall. Even if everyone opened a small stove, they didn't dare to make a noise, so they took the cake and vegetables, and squatted on the ground with fish ball soup and ate it.

Lin Yanchao smelled the scent of green onions on the soup, looked at the five fish balls with white flowers in the bowl, and couldn't help but think of a joke before.

Once upon a time, a foreigner saw a Chinese person put a ping pong ball in his mouth and thought it was magic. Seeing that there were meatballs in the bitten ping-pong ball, the foreigner hurriedly asked: "How did you put the meatballs into the ping-pong ball?" ”

Then the Chinese man said, "We eat fish balls." ”

Lin Yanchao scooped a fish ball with a soup spoon and bit it in his mouth, and praised it in his heart, well, it's not starch, it's real fish that is beaten to the skin, and then bite into it and praise it again, the meatballs are the taste of sugar and soy sauce, which is too authentic.

After eating a fish ball, I took a big bite of the vegetarian cake and took a sip of the soup with the oil star, which was really enjoyable. The three of them ate most of it at once, and when they got to the rest of the back, they were reluctant to gobble it up and chat.

"Yanchao, I heard that Chen Xinggui invited you to his Spring and Autumn Society, can you help me ask for a favor and bring me one too." Zhu Xiangwen said eagerly.

Lin Yanchao heard Chen Xinggui say that the Spring and Autumn Society has been short of people recently, plus his own face, so the opportunity is still quite big, even if it doesn't work, he doesn't lose anything. But Lin Yanchao didn't say anything: "I don't know Chen Xinggui very well, I can help you talk to him, don't have too much hope." ”

Zhu Xiangwen smiled when he heard this, and said humbly: "It's good that Brother Lin is willing to help me say it, I asked Chen Xinggui twice before, but he didn't answer." ”

Hearing that Lin Yanchao was willing to speak for Zhu Xiangwen, Huang Biyou hurriedly said: "Brother Lin, you can also help me talk about it!" ”

Hearing Huang Biyou say this, before Lin Yanchao could speak, Zhu Xiangwen became anxious: "You are governing the Book of Poetry, why did you enter the Spring and Autumn Society." ”

"When I was in school, I read Spring and Autumn, can't I? If you want me to rule the Spring and Autumn Period now, it's okay. Huang Biyou said.

Lin Yanchao was a little embarrassed and said: "Brother Huang, Yu Ziyou, Ye Xianggao, aren't they governing the Book of Poetry?" Why don't you ask him to bring you into the company? ”

Huang Biyou frowned and said: "Why didn't you look for it, Yu Ziyou and Lin Biqing don't look down on me, don't mention Ye Xianggao, last time I saw that he had a copy of the Five Classics of Justice and wanted to borrow it to read, but he said that his Ye family's books would never be borrowed, this stingy person, how could I plead with him?" ”

Ye Xianggao's painting style makes him a little incomprehensible, and the future Lord Shoufu will not have this bearing. But think about it, it's too late for good students to study on their own, who will help someone who is not as good as themselves.

Huang Biyou was also afraid of Lin Yanchao: "Yanchao, aren't you a scholar of governance?" I happen to have a copy of the text that transcribes the big and small topics of the Shangshu, you can take it and read it at any time, and you can return it to me whenever you want. ”

Lin Yanchao nodded, this can be had, this question Kuwen Mansion was originally borrowed by him in the library, but the rules in the library are troublesome, a book must be returned within a month, and only three books can be borrowed at a time, this is an iron rule, and it is useless for Lin Yanchao to stuff money into the book.

So it's good to have a book on hand at any time.

Seeing Huang Biyou's promise, Zhu Xiangwen said anxiously: "Brother Yanchao, I don't have any books, but there is a volume of ink, which has been tried by Hou Guan and Min County in the past few years, if you want to see it, you can take it from me at any time." ”

The so-called ink is to select Chinese characters by the examiner, which is equivalent to the sample text of the exam.

Lin Yanchao said in his heart that this is not bad, so he said: "I'll help you talk about it, and then it will depend on what Brother Chen means." ”

Both of them were very happy, but Yu Qingzhou had already made up his mind, and he was indifferent to eating the cake by himself.

The next day, Lin Yanchao told Chen Xinggui about this, and Chen Xinggui agreed: "Since it is Brother Lin's face, I must sell it." There are quite a lot of people in the Spring and Autumn Society, you can give a lecture in the Spring and Autumn Period, and you can talk about it once when you govern the Four Books, and you can go wherever you want, so there are fewer people. ”

"As for Huang Biyou, I recommend him to the club where he studies the Book of Poetry."

So the matter was decided, Zhu Xiangwen and Huang Biyou were very happy when they learned that the matter was done, and they gave Lin Yanchao the books they said were all good.

When he got the books he wanted, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but be very happy, now he was much more trouble-free.

On this day, I went to the Lin Mansion to attend a class.

This is the end of the year.

The Lin Mansion is ready to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.

Lin Yanchao is also counted below this Fuzhang layman, and he has listened to several classes.

In the past few days, Lin Yanchao has admired the knowledge of this layman very much, and the other party's insight is not just like that of an ordinary teacher, and his words are rarely empty and empty. It's not the kind of scholarly opinion, the kind that talks on paper, but the kind that has really been practiced.

After a few times, Lin Yanchao also saw clearly that the other party would never be a down-and-out scholar, and whether he would say a sentence or two when he spoke. And he usually speaks official dialect very authentically, not a purely local mixed official dialect, with a hard tongue, as if he has traveled in the north.

Most of this person has been an official in other places, and then he either resigned from the official position, or Ding You was at home, so he spent time teaching and playing.

Of course, this was also very normal in the Ming Dynasty, and in later generations, even if you were admitted to a good university, it would be better to have a good job after graduation. But in the Ming Dynasty, those wayward scholars, after working hard to gain fame, often only served as officials for a year or two, and then went home to retire.

At first glance, this seems to be in line with the saying that reading is not for rice, but in fact, after the main examination is lifted, the treatment of scholars is already quite good.

There are often officials who stop and do along the way, count the ups and downs, go to be officials when they are idle, and go home to rest when they are tired.

For example, after Dong Qichang came out of history, he was unsatisfactory, he recuperated and went home, and his family food for more than 20 years, the court was in trouble, but he had idle time, not only full of calligraphy and painting skills, but also caused a scourge to the township by the way, and then after the family was so idle that the egg hurt, he became an official again.

Three ups and downs, here as an official, and there enjoying a long vacation, life is really nourishing.

Although he guessed that the other party might be an official of Zhishi, Lin Yanchao still talked back when he should talk back, and raised the bar when he should raise the bar, what's wrong with him.

Halfway through the day's lesson, the layman covered his lecture and said, "Ten days later, it will be the monthly class of your academy, are you sure?" ”

Lin Yanchao remembered that he had been immersed in hard study for the past few days, and said at the moment: "Students read every day, but the growth of knowledge has not reached the level that students are satisfied with. ”

The layman nodded and said: "This desire to learn but can't, your diligent ambition, these days as a teacher has been seen, it is really unexpected for the teacher." You must know that I give you twice or three times the amount of lessons for ordinary people, which means that others study for two or three months, and you only need to study for one month. ”

Lin Yanchao was complacent when he heard this, thinking that of course, I am a prodigy.

The layman changed his words and said: "But the way to study is urgent, there is a poem, you can follow it." ”

It is good for lay people to give lectures, but like teachers at this time, they all love to talk about big truths.

Lin Yanchao grew up drinking chicken soup for the soul from his parents and teachers since he was a child, but unfortunately he has heard a lot of truths since he was a child, but he still can't live this life well.

Lin Yanchao hung his head and said, "The students are listening. ”

But I heard the layman read: "Last night, the spring water was born by the river, and the giant ship was light. It has always been a waste of power, and this day is free. ”

"This poem is written by Zhu Zi, is his knowledge and cultivation of experience, the sage's decades of cultivation, you can know that learning is not a work to do, to usually slowly understand, this poem is about the usual daily labor or merit, like a giant ship stranded on the river bank, but how to drag can not be dragged, wait until the spring river warm river tide, the giant boat rises with the water, light as a feather, in the river is with the waves, in the river is free to walk."

Lin Yanchao pondered these four lines of poetry, and felt that this chicken soup was still quite nutritious, and immediately said: "Yes, sir, I remember." ”
