"Seeking truth from the outside is the reason why knowledge and practice are two things. Seeking truth from my heart is the teaching of the Holy Sect that combines knowledge and practice."
Zhu Ping'an read the "Book of Biography" all morning and gained a further understanding of Wang Yangming's philosophy. In addition to the unity of knowledge and action, Wang Yangming was lively and good at using examples. His often witty language skills also benefited Zhu Ping'an.
Not a small impact.
When it was almost noon, Li Shu led Baozi's little maid to Zhu Ping'an's guest room. Baozi's little maid was carrying a food box with a red face.
"Uncle, it's time to eat."
The little maid Baozi said in a long tone, and placed the food box on the table in Zhu Ping's room like a treasure. She stretched out her chubby hand to open the food box and took out the food inside one by one.
As soon as the food box was opened, Zhu Ping'an smelled an intoxicating aroma. Although the food in the Hou Mansion was always very good, the food box brought by Hua'er, Baozi's maid, today was obviously much better than what he had eaten in the previous two days.
.
The dishes in the food box are all my favorites, and even the soup is my favorite rice porridge.
"That's it, thank you very much." Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly and thanked Li Shu and Baozi's little maid.
"Don't think too much, it was just done by random people." Li Shu glanced at Zhu Ping'an, flattened her mouth and said.
Zhu Ping'an has long been immune to Li Shu's arrogance.
He happened to be hungry, so Zhu Pingan was not polite. He walked to the table and put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into his mouth with chopsticks. It was dry and moist, sweet, sour and mellow, and had a familiar taste. It was really delicious. Zhu Pingan endured it.
I couldn't help but eat two pieces in a row before I put down my chopsticks still unsatisfied.
"Did you bring the cook at home?" Zhu Ping'an's eyes lit up.
"Ah?" Baozi's little maid was a little confused.
"Why, it's not delicious?" Li Shu raised her eyebrows.
"No, it's so delicious." Zhu Ping'an shook his head, "It tastes just like yours. I thought your cook would also come here."
Hearing this, Li Shu glanced at Zhu Ping'an, her watery eyes lit up slightly, but she flattened her mouth and said, "It's rare to see something strange. It's not like the Hou Mansion doesn't have a cook."
Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly. He didn't ask any further. It didn't matter to him whether he was the cook of Li Shu's family or the cook of Hou's family. The food tasted good. He just had to eat more.
However, what surprised Zhu Pingan was that Li Shu and the little maid Baozi had no intention of leaving. Li Shu walked to Zhu Pingan's desk and sat down, holding the papyrus paper that Zhu Pingan used to practice calligraphy and composition and read it.
The little maid Baozi is like a follower. She goes wherever Li Shu goes.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Zhu Pingan stopped his chopsticks and asked.
"We ate in the courtyard." The little maid Baozi said with a puffy face, "There is a person in the front yard who is very annoying and doesn't even wink."
"Oh?" Zhu Pingan was a little curious.
"He's Grandma's nephew, but he's so annoying. He always hangs around in front of us." When Baozi's little maid mentioned that person, Baozi's face was full of displeasure.
"Why do you mention that idiot!" Li Shu seemed to be afraid that Zhu Ping'an would misunderstand, and said as soon as the little maid Baozi finished speaking, "That man is eighteen years old and cannot study well. He is not good at martial arts and has nothing to do at home.
En Yin, who just joined the Imperial Academy, is obviously as stupid as a dog, but he still thinks he is the reincarnation of Pan An. He holds a fan all day pretending to be a bullshit genius and reciting some bullshit poems. I hate it when I read it."
When Li Shu mentioned that person, she was filled with disgust.
After listening to the words of Baozi's maid and Li Shu, Zhu Ping'an roughly understood the outline of the matter. It was simply to celebrate the birthday of the old lady, so the nephew of Mrs. Linhuai Marquis came to the Marquis Mansion in advance, probably because he saw Li Shu's appearance.
, what were you thinking about? Like a male orangutan, he kept showing off in front of Li Shu, and as a result, Li Shu was annoyed and came to hide in peace.
Haha, I guess the entire Linhuai Marquis Mansion is happy to see this happen and supports that nephew. This can be seen from the Linhuai Marquis Mansion's attitude towards him.
Anyway, after the birthday banquet is over, Li Shu will break off the engagement when she returns home. What happens will have no impact on her.
However, it can be seen from Li Shu's reaction that the Linhuai Marquis Mansion's plan failed.
Zhu Pingan smiled slightly, lowered his head and continued to eat his food. Today's food tasted really good. Zhu Pingan felt that he could eat a lot more than usual.
"Hey, Zhu Pingan, you have to remember, you are now my unmarried husband." Li Shu casually turned over a piece of papyrus written by Zhu Pingan, looked at it for a moment, and said to Zhu Pingan, who was eating deliciously.
.
Zhu Ping'an naturally understood what Li Shu meant, and this was what he had made an appointment with Li Shu before coming to the Hou Mansion.
"Of course." Zhu Pingan nodded and put a piece of pot-roasted meat into his mouth. He naturally knew what to do in the Hou Mansion.
Hearing this, Li Shu pursed her lips in a satisfied arc.
Zhu Pingan continued to eat lunch, preparing to have a full meal with an open stomach. The delicious lunch made Zhu Pingan drunk for a while. However, before Zhu Pingan had eaten for long, he saw a gust of fragrant wind coming, and Li Shu smiled.
Sitting opposite him, his skin was as radiant as snow, and his charming eyes seemed to be dripping with water.
What did this girl do? She must have taken the wrong medicine. In surprise, Zhu Pingan almost dropped the chopsticks in his hand to the ground.
"Brother Zhu, don't always eat meat. Try this braised bamboo shoots. It's crisp and refreshing. It's perfect with rice."
What surprised Zhu Pingan even more was that Li Shu diligently picked up a piece of braised bamboo shoots with her slender hands and handed it to Zhu Pingan's lips. She looked at herself with shining eyes, so charming that she seemed to be dripping with water, and her voice was so charming and almost soft.
of human bones.
However, Zhu Pingan soon understood what Li Shu meant.
Because Li Shu's action was followed by a heart-rending cry, as if Brother Zhang next door had discovered Lao Wang lying in his closet. He was shocked and angry, and his anger was filled with heartache.
"You, what are you doing, cousin Shu'er, who is he? How could you do this?"
Zhu Ping'an looked up and saw a handsome young man with a heart-holding look. He looked like a husband cheating on the bed. He was holding a folding fan in one hand, covering his chest with a hurt face, and pointed at himself and Li tremblingly with the other hand.
Shu, it seems like she has suffered a lot of trauma.
This man must be the nephew of Mrs. Linhuai Marquis mentioned by Li Shu and the little maid Bao Zi. He is not very good looking, but he has the air of being the best in the world. He smells of powder and looks like a typical dandy.
In addition to him, Fatty Zhou was also following him.
Li Shu had already done this, so naturally she had to cooperate.
Zhu Ping'an raised his head and smiled at the young man, then opened his mouth and rolled the braised bamboo shoots handed over by Li Shu into his mouth, chewed hard, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Na Saonian became even worse and his face turned green.
"Oh, why are you here? You're so embarrassed."
Li Shu seemed to have just seen the person coming. She seemed extremely shy. She put down her chopsticks and hurriedly covered her face with her sleeves, just like a standard lady who was caught secretly having an affair with her brother. Her pretty face was covered with a piece of cloth.
Flushed, Xiaoman stood up hurriedly, stamped his feet, then covered his face with his sleeves, led the little maid Baozi and trotted all the way from the room, disappearing.
This girl, it would be a pity not to be a movie queen
Zhu Ping'an looked at Li Shu's leaving figure and smiled. (To be continued.)
