Chapter 90 Playing by the River

Li Zhiyun changed the allusion of "jealous jar" and told it to Liu Yinglian, saying that once upon a time there was an emperor, thinking of the hard work and achievements of the prime ministers, and wanted to give him some beautiful women as concubines. After he finished speaking, Liu Yinglian understood it as soon as he heard it.

He said: "Are you mocking me for being jealous?" Li Zhiyun smiled and said: "It's good to know. However, jealousy is a woman's nature, there is nothing wrong with it..."

The next day, Li Zhiyun spent a whole day finishing all his official and private matters. However, he didn't want to leave Gaoling County yet. Firstly, Pizhou was not far away, so there was no need to rush there; secondly, they had already walked more than a dozen times.

It was getting colder and it was time to take a good breather, so Li Zhiyun decided to stay in Gaoling County for two more days.

After breakfast, Li Zhiyun practiced calligraphy in his room. It has been two years since he traveled to this world. Whenever he has time, he practices calligraphy with calligraphy. Therefore, his calligraphy has made great progress, although it is not as good as the ancients who used calligraphy since childhood.

, but it’s not like the writing was like at the beginning, it’s like a crab crawling.

He spread rice paper on the dark and dull lacquer table and wrote for a while. Liu Yinglian opened the door and walked in. Seeing him lying next to the desk, she asked, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, write."

Liu Yinglian came over, picked up a piece of paper on the desk, looked at it, and then read softly:

On a spring trip, apricot blossoms are everywhere.

Whose family on the street is young and charming?

I plan to marry you and live in peace for the rest of my life.

Even if you are ruthlessly abandoned, you cannot be ashamed.

Liu Yinglian put down the paper, curled her lips and said, "I know who this woman is."

"Who is it?"

"I won't say anything if I see through it."

Li Zhiyun looked up at her and said with a smile, "You are so petty."

Unexpectedly, when Cao Cao arrived, the woman suddenly rushed in. When she saw them, she said: "Hey, you are all here? I was just looking for you." When Li Zhiyun saw him, he quickly put down the rabbit brush in his hand.

Said: "Miss Wang, why are you here?"

"Brother wants to accompany you on a tour of Yuanjiang River, but he was caught up in something today. He asked me to take you there. Let's go quickly!"

When Li Zhiyun heard this, he also wanted to go out and relax, so he stood up and said to Liu Yinglian: "Let's go to the river to play, okay?" Liu Yinglian frowned slightly and said: "The festival has passed, and now the riverside is full of flowers.

Liu Bei, what else is fun?" Wang Zhujun said unconvinced: "Although the flowers are withered and Liu Bei is gone, there are still beautiful mountains and rivers, and hundreds of teams are vying for the flow!"

Li Zhiyun saw that Liu Yinglian didn't want to go, so he hesitated. Wang Zhujun said quickly: "Hey, I've made arrangements, so don't be a spoiler and let's go!" After saying that, he couldn't help but grab one of Li Zhiyun's arms and pull him hard.

Left the room.

When they came to the yard, Li Zhiyun was about to get on the horse at Wang Zhujun's urging, but he thought that Liu Hong had gone to visit his old friend early in the morning. If he left and left Liu Yinglian alone in the inn, would she be too lonely?

?Thinking of this, he hesitated again. At this moment, he saw Liu Yinglian walking out of the guest room coyly.

When Wang Zhujun saw it, he joked: "What, have you figured it out? Are you afraid that I will steal your golden son-in-law?" Upon hearing this, Liu Yinglian blushed and whispered: "No, I want to go too.

Get some air." The carriage stopped in the yard. Liu Yinglian walked over and got on the carriage, followed by the maid. When the coachman saw that the owner was about to go out, he quickly fetched the horses from the stable and hitched them to the carriage.

Li Zhiyun and Wang Zhujun rode horses, Liu Yinglian rode a carriage, and a dozen guards followed behind. The group left the yard, left the inn and headed out of the city.

When they came to the Yuanjiang River, they saw a carriage parked on the river bank with several servants standing beside it. It turned out that Wang Zhujun had already asked the servants to arrive first. Li Zhiyun got off the horse and walked to the bank, facing the spring water of the river.

, I suddenly felt relaxed and happy.

The lady from the county magistrate's family had already made arrangements. She took a big butterfly kite from the carriage and shouted with a smile: "King Chu, come and fly the kite." Li Zhiyun walked over and the servant handed him a big bat kite.

and 簰子, 簰子 is round

He wanted Liu Yinglian to fly the kite, but Liu Yinglian refused, saying that she and the maid were standing nearby to watch. The wind on the river was strong, and Wang Zhujun's kite was quickly put up. After a while, Li Zhiyun's big bat

The kite also rose into the air.

Flying kites was one of the most common activities for the ancients during outings. Xu Wei, one of the three talented men of the Ming Dynasty, wrote many poems about flying kites, one of which reads:

Rub the wicker thread and batting into the cotton, and rub enough for Qianxun to place the paper duck.

How much power the spring breeze can dissipate will bring the children to spring.

Kites have a long history in China. The earliest record of kites is recorded in "Mozi, Lu Wen" written during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period: "Gongshu cut bamboo wood into a kite, made it and flew it, and it did not fall for three days."

Zi mentioned that Gongshu Zi (Lu Ban) invented a bamboo magpie that could fly for three days and three nights. This shows that kites existed more than 2,000 years ago.

The ancients have long realized that flying kites is an activity that is beneficial to physical and mental health. In the spring season, people go out to fly kites, bathe in the sun, stretch their muscles and bones, breathe fresh air, improve blood circulation and strengthen the respiratory capacity of the lungs.

Kite flying is not only an entertainment activity played by the Chinese. Starting from the Tang and Song Dynasties, it also began to be exported to the world, first to Southeast Asian countries such as North Korea, Japan and Malaya, and then to Europe, America and other places. In fact, our ancients invented it

There are many things that we don’t take seriously, but

After arriving abroad, foreigners discovered its great value as soon as they studied it. For example, the compass, one of the four great inventions, was used to measure geomantic omen after we invented it, while Europeans used it for ocean navigation, opening up the great

The Age of Sail laid the foundation for the rise of the West.

Similarly, after the ancient Chinese kites were introduced to Europe, under the influence of the European industrial revolution, they began to study the development of aircraft. After the unremitting research of Kelly of the United Kingdom, Hargrave of Australia, and Lilinda of Germany,

Improvements, and finally the American Wright brothers built the earliest aircraft that could successfully carry people.

At this time, the international community re-evaluated the kite from China, believing that it was not just a toy, but a tool for scientific exploration. A Chinese kite hangs in the hall of the Aerospace Museum in Washington, USA.

On the side of it is written: "The earliest human aircraft were kites and rockets from China."

Li Zhiyun looked up at the sky. For a moment, the wind tightened, and his hand was cut by the kite string. He couldn't help but say "ouch". When Wang Zhujun saw it, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to him. Li Zhiyun took it and put it on his hand with the handkerchief.

The two let it go for a while. Wang Zhujun called his servant to bring over a pair of scissors and cut the thread. Li Zhiyun didn't understand: "What are you doing?"

"Let all disasters and bad luck be taken away." Wang Zhujun said, and cut off his string again. It turns out that there is such a saying for flying a kite, and Li Zhiyun has gained a lot of knowledge.

As soon as the string was broken, the kite fluttered away in the wind. For a moment it was only the size of an egg, in the blink of an eye there was only a little ink star left, and then it was gone.

After flying the kite, they started to swing again. The servant tied a rope between two trees, with a board at the bottom. Wang Zhujun sat on the board and let Li Zhiyun push her. The higher the swing got, the louder her laughter became. Coming louder and louder...

At noon, the servants took out the food from the carriage. After the guards distributed the food, they squatted next to them to eat. Li Zhiyun, Wang Zhujun, Liu Yinglian and the maid sat around on a piece of grass. On the felt in the middle, there was fire meat and dried meat. Preserved meat, tripe lungs, red and white kidneys, steamed cakes, steamed buns, etc. Steamed cakes are the steamed buns of later generations, and the steamed buns at that time were stuffed, similar to the steamed buns of later generations, and were divided into vegetarian steamed buns and meat steamed buns.

Wang Zhujun said while eating: "Miss Liu, you don't seem to be very happy. A lady from a wealthy family like you spends all day in the boudoir and finally comes out. Why don't you have some fun?" Liu Yinglian glanced at her. He glanced at her and said unconvincingly: "Aren't you also a young lady from a wealthy family?"

"I'm different from you. I never do embroidery in the boudoir. My brother says I'm a tomboy. I can do everything men can do..."

After lunch, Li Zhiyun spread a blanket under a tree and took a nap with his back against the trunk. In the afternoon, he went to the riverside for a while and then returned home.

The team walked back along a dirt road. Liu Yinglian sat on the carriage and raised the curtain of the rear window of the carriage. She saw Li Zhiyun and Wang Zhujun riding behind the carriage side by side. They were talking and laughing, very happy. She was so angry. The curtain was thrown down with a snap, and the maid sitting opposite couldn't help but let out a "poof" when she saw it. Liu Yinglian glared at her, and the maid quickly dared not laugh.

During dinner, Li Zhiyun walked into the dining hall and saw Liu Hong, Zhang Zheng, Cai Hu and the maid sitting at the table, except Liu Yinglian was missing. He walked over and sat down and said to the maid: "Where is the lady? What's wrong with her? Not here?" Before the maid could answer, Liu Hong said, "I went to her room and was lying on the bed. She said she felt uncomfortable."

"How can you do it without eating?" Li Zhiyun frowned and said to the maid, "Go and call her quickly."

The maid agreed and was about to get up when Li Zhiyun said: "Forget it, let me go." After saying that, he stood up and walked out. He came to Liu Yinglian's room and saw her lying on the couch with a thin quilt covering her body. Li Zhiyun walked to the couch, looked down at her, and said softly: "Miss, why don't you go to eat?" Liu Yinglian closed her eyes and said, "I don't want to eat, I have no appetite."

Li Zhiyun knew that she was angry. His little daughter had a unique style when she was angry. His heart suddenly softened. He moved a stool to sit next to the couch, held one of her hands with both hands, and said gently: "You are angry with me." , right?" Liu Yinglian said nothing.

"Even if you are angry, don't feel bad about yourself. Get up and eat quickly." Li Zhiyun urged.

Liu Yinglian looked at him with half-squinted eyes and said softly: "You can let me get up, but you have to promise me one thing."

"What's up?"
