    ?

    Gao Wenxiu grew up in his grandmother's parents since he was a child. At that time, his grandfather Sun Zhizhi was still an official in Shaanxi.

    Wenxiu has outstanding talent and intelligence. She has mastered the Six Classics at the age of eight and can compose at the age of ten. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

    Wenxiu's character "Houqing" and Wenjiao's character "Yingqing" were both given by Sun Zhizhi, which shows how much grandfather loves these two children.

    [1] "Reading Han Du Collection" Du Mu. Poems

    Du's poem Han Bichou came to read,

    Like Qian Magu scratching the itchy place.

    Who will get the marrow of the phoenix outside the sky?

    ? No one has unwrapped the continuation glue.

    Sun Zhizhi took Wenxiu's hand affectionately and walked into the middle hall.

    On the wall of the facing lobby hangs the "Picture of Hermitage in Qingbian" by Wang Meng[1], the national champion of the dynasty. It shows the cliffs of the Huixi River, the trees hidden in the mountains, the beautiful peaks and ridges, the clouds and smoke, and the end is extraordinary.  On both sides is a pair of delicately framed couplets written by Sun Zhizhi: the sound of the stream rises at night and the cold penetrates the pillow, and the mountain scenery is thick and emerald in the morning to dye the clothes.

    On the red sandalwood table are bronze tripods and an incense burner with animal heads, and the seal smoke is curling up, and the fragrance is fragrant.  The nanmu Eight Immortals table and a pair of Taishi chairs are inlaid with marble. At the end of the Duobaoge stands the Yunlong High Table.

    Wen Xiu saw that the decoration in the hall was extraordinary and refined, which showed that the ups and downs in Grandpa's chest were beyond the comparison of ordinary mediocrity.

    After everyone was seated, Sun Zhizhi knew that both Wen Qing and Wen Xiu failed in the Beijing examination, which was frustrating!  When talking about this matter, he couldn't help stroking his beard and sighing: "Houqing, there is a poem by Du Shaoling that says, 'But seeing the great reputation in ancient times, you are surrounded by hardships all day long'. Those who fail in the examination field like to use his  This sentence comes from my comfort. In fact, this sentence is only applicable to us old people. It is the so-called "Du Shi Han Wen is always read, like Qian Magu [3] scratching the itch. "You and Wen Qing are young, so you must not use it."  Reasons such as Wenqifubuqi' are self-defeating! After a few days of rest, you need to settle down and study hard, and you can learn for Wenshan's enlightenment by the way."

    [2] "Shi Cang Shu Drunken Ink Hall" Su Shi. Poem

    ?Literacy worries in life begin,

    It is okay to write down the name roughly.

    Why use cursive script to praise the speed,

    It is worrying to open the book in a blur [4].

    Hearing her grandfather's entrustment, Wenxiu felt both warmth and heavy pressure. This warmth and pressure should have come from her grandfather's ardent expectations.

    At this time, he suddenly had a strange idea: Why did Su Dongpo, who is famous all over the world, lament that "Life begins with hardships and literacy" when he was old?  Apart from the strife in the officialdom, who can find out the hidden secrets in it?  Or, this is exactly the reprint of Tao Yuanming's "Since taking the heart as a form, he is melancholy and lonely".  He couldn't figure out the complicated state of mind of these two sages at that time, and felt that it was absurd for him to suddenly have this idea.

    Wenxiu raised her head and met her grandfather's earnest eyes, only to realize that this flash of thought was a little out of courtesy, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa's teachings, my grandson will always remember them in my heart. My grandson will ask for advice every day, and when the court resumes  Scientific research, thanks to grandpa's blessing, my grandson will surely succeed!"

    Sun Zhizhi looked at Wenxiu with relief.

    Wenxiu saw that the aunt who was unable to intervene was a little unnatural, so she asked out of words: "My sister, how are my cousins?"

    Zhao Shuxian said: "It's good or bad, but it's just spoiled and spoiled. Wen Shan didn't come over to see your third brother." Zhao Shuxian pulled out a little boy from behind as she spoke.

    The boy wore a pair of buns, a pink trousers coat, and a longevity lock on his chest.  He has delicate features, red lips and white teeth, and he is really attractive.

    The boy bowed shyly and said, "Hello, third brother." Before Wenxiu could react, he hid behind his aunt again, and sneaked a peek at Gao Wenxiu from time to time.

    Wenxiu liked this little cousin from the bottom of her heart, and said: "My cousin is still so young, so he is so polite, it really is my concubine who teaches well." He waved to Wen Shan and said, "Cousin, come here."

    Wen Shan shrank behind her mother and refused to come out.

    Zhao Shuxian smiled and said, "This kid is hopeless and shy. There's nothing I can do." Turning around and feigning anger, she said, "Wen Shan, I should learn more from your third brother in the future, don't be so ignorant of etiquette."

    Seeing that her cousin refused to come over, Wenxiu smiled, then scanned the hall but did not see Wenjiao, so she asked, "How is Sister Yingqing?"

    Zhao Shuxian said: "Oh, that's fine."

    Wenxiu didn't know what to say for a while, so she said out of words, "I don't know how old she is?"

    Zhao Shuxian said: "You are four years older than her. Don't you remember when you were playing together when you were young?"

     Wenxiu recalled the time when she and her cousin were sitting and laughing at her grandfather's house, and said embarrassingly: "At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I often made my cousin angry. I heard that my sister has become more and more intelligent in recent years."  gone."

    Sun Zhizhi couldn't hide his inner joy, stroked his beard and said, "It's quite knowledgeable and reasonable, with a gentle disposition."

    "Have you ever promised to hire someone?" As soon as the words came out, Wenxiu's face turned red instantly.

    Notes

    [1] Wang Meng (1308-1385), courtesy name Shuming, nicknamed Huanghe Shanqiao, Xiangguang Jushi, was born in Wuxing (now Huzhou, Zhejiang), a painter in the Yuan Dynasty.  Grandfather Zhao Mengfu, maternal grandmother Duan Sheng, uncle Zhao Yong, and cousin Zhao Yanzheng were all famous painters in the Yuan Dynasty.

    Wang Meng's landscape paintings were directly influenced by Zhao Mengfu, and later learned from Wang Wei, Dong Yuan, Ju Ran and others, and synthesized a new style.

    When he was young, he lived in seclusion in Huanghe Mountain (now Gaoting Mountain, Hangzhou) for decades, and lived a leisurely life of "lying on the green mountain and looking at the white clouds".  At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng was based in western Zhejiang, and was employed as Li Wen and Chang Shi.  After abandoning his official position, he lived in seclusion in Huanghe Mountain in Linping (now Linping Town, Yuhang, Zhejiang Province), and called himself Huanghe Shanqiao.  In 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and established the Ming Empire. Wang Meng served as the magistrate of Tai'an (now Shandong). He was implicated in the "Hu Weiyong case" and died in prison in the eighteenth year of Hongwu (1385) of the Ming Dynasty.

    Wang Meng is good at poetry and calligraphy.  You are good at painting landscapes, learned from his grandfather Zhao Mengfu, and established his own style with Dong Yuan and Ju Ran as his ancestors.  The scenery is densely described, with multiple mountains and rivers in the layout, making good use of the chapped lines and thirsty ink moss points to express the lush and vast atmosphere of the forest.  In addition to mountains and rivers, he can also be a character.  His works had a great influence on the landscape paintings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, second only to Huang Gongwang. Later generations called him, Huang Gongwang, Wu Zhen, and Ni Zan the "Four Masters of the Yuan Dynasty".  The surviving works include "Seclusion in Qingbian", "Gezhichuan Migration", "Gaoyin in Xiashan", "Danshan Yinghai", "Taibai Mountain" and so on.

    [2] Kanzhai (k¨£n l¨£n) means to be stuck, not going well.

    [3] Magu

    Magu, also known as Shouxian Empress, Xuji Chongying Daoist, is a goddess of Chinese folk belief and belongs to Taoist figures.

    According to the "Shen Xian Zhuan", she was a woman who practiced Taoism in Guyu Mountain in the southeast of Mouzhou (now Mouping District, Yantai City, Shandong Province).  "It has been seen that the East China Sea has turned into mulberry fields three times."

    The Chinese have always had a strong expectation of longevity, and so does Taoism, which takes the pursuit of longevity as its main content.  Therefore, in the Taoist immortal system, the god of longevity is divided into two genders. The male god is the famous Pengzu, while the female god is Magu.

    The source of this goddess is very early, and the records are very clear.

    It is said that in the eastern part of China, there was a man surnamed Wang who was very knowledgeable and served as an official of the emperor. Later, he began to practice and became a god.  His younger sister is Magu, who is very beautiful and has become a fairy.

    It is also said that she practiced and became an immortal on Magu Mountain in Nancheng County, Jiangxi Province. Later, this mountain naturally became one of the holy places enshrined by Taoism.

    Magu seems to be a woman who is less than 20 years old. She claims to have witnessed the sea turning into land three times, so people regard her as a birthday star.  According to legend, on March 3 of a year, the highest goddess in the sky, the Queen Mother, held a birthday party and invited all the goddesses to participate. Magu brought home-brewed Ganoderma lucidum wine to the Queen Mother.  folk.

    [4] ã®ÉÕ (ch¨£ng hu¨£ng): also known as "ã®ÉÕ".  It has the meaning of melancholy, fuzzy, and wild appearance.  If it is "¾ªã®", it means frustrated and melancholy.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
