"It's not elegant at all. The study is just a place to put books." Chu Yunsong said with a smile.
It seemed that Chu Yunsong and Mr. Chu had a tacit understanding for a long time, because when they stood up to leave, Chu Yunsong and Mr. Chu nodded in an unobtrusive manner, and Mr. Chu seemed to wave his hand calmly.
If it weren't for Ye Kaixin's thoughtfulness and sharp vision, he might not have been able to detect the small interactions between the Chu family father and son.
"Is this the time to break into the house? It seems that the old Chu family has a good first impression of this young master. It is estimated that we need to conduct an in-depth investigation." After Ye Kai figured it out for a while, he had a clue in his heart.
On the contrary, when leaving, his father Ye Ziping glanced at Ye Kai intentionally or unintentionally. What was contained in his eyes was a kind of faint concern and encouragement.
Ye Kaixin felt warm in his heart and nodded slightly, expressing a feeling of reassurance to Ye Ziping.
His son has grown up! Ye Ziping's heart moved and he felt a little happy. Nothing could make him feel more relieved than this.
Although Mr. Ye did not move, everything happening around him was within his ears and eyes.
As generals who have fought in all directions and made countless achievements, there is no doubt about the ability of Mr. Ye and the second Mr. Ye to control the overall situation. Why can't you see the special "care" of the Chu family for Ye Kai? But this is also what Ye Kai must experience.
A test. If the Chu family doesn't like him, there is no need for everyone to work in vain. Just treat it as a visit during the Spring Festival.
From Ye Kai's point of view, Chu Yunsong's study is not big, nor can it be said to be small. It is about more than forty square meters. The windows are bright and clean. It can be seen that people often visit it. The antique mahogany furniture shows a kind of
It has a thick and simple atmosphere, and the volumes of thread-bound Song Dynasty books on the rosewood bookshelf show that the owner's identity is not trivial.
In the study, except for the sunny side, which has a carved wooden lattice window with a small piece of glass inlaid in the middle for lighting, two of the other three walls are made of bookshelves that reach the sky and the floor. Only the side with the door opens.
There are a few traditional ink paintings hanging randomly. There is a large book table by the window, covered with a thin wool felt mat. There are some faint ink stains on it. It is obvious that this is the place where the owner splashed ink.
A piece of rice paper was spread on the desk. The ink was not yet dry, and there was a fragrant smell of ink.
Ye Kai looked over and saw a few big characters written in cursive, "Don't boast if you have a big family."
Reading between the lines, it gives the impression that the children of the aristocratic family exude the aura of being arrogant and different from their peers, which reminds Ye Kai that this prospective father-in-law is not an ordinary person, and can run the Construction and Development Bank with one person's strength.
In general, it is indeed not easy. Although it also relies on the strength of the Chu family, Chu Yunsong's own ability should not be underestimated.
After entering the room, Chu Yunsong didn't say anything, just spread out the rice paper and started practicing calligraphy.
Ye Kaize casually took out a few books from the bookshelf and flipped through them, without any scruples about being a guest.
Chu Yunsong's collection of books includes collections of classics and history, as well as some biographies of famous people. Song editions are only part of them, but these books should have the highest economic value. As for other collections such as those during the Republic of China, they are also very valuable.
It is valuable. After all, due to historical reasons, very few books of this type have been preserved.
As for the number of books on Tang poetry and Song lyrics, there was naturally not a small amount of them. Ye Kai did not read in depth. He only occasionally took out a book from the bookshelf, flipped through it twice, and then put it back as it was. In just ten minutes, he read
He just flipped through a dozen books, which seemed a bit perfunctory.
At this time, Chu Yunsong had finished writing a large-character article, washed his hands with water, dried them, and asked Ye Kai, "How do you feel?"
"Very good." Ye Kai nodded and affirmed.
"What's so good about it?" Chu Yunsong asked.
"More books than my family." Ye Kai replied.
Chu Yunsong suddenly found that he felt a little unable to use his strength, and felt a little bit dumbfounded. Faced with Ye Kai's seemingly intentional and unintentional response, this kind of behavior that did not follow the routine, he really didn't want to
Easy to deal with.
"You don't seem to be very interested in Tang poetry and Song lyrics?" Chu Yunsong noticed that Ye Kai basically didn't pay much attention to this part just now, so he asked.
"Poetry is just a minor thing. It is a pastime for literati. It has little to do with the practical application of governing the country. The nature of that thing is similar to ancient popular songs. It is okay to listen to it for entertainment. If you indulge in it, hey
, It’s really not a good thing.” Ye Kai shook his head and replied with some disapproval.
"Your tone is not small." Chu Yunsong said with some surprise.
"Actually, Tang poetry and Song lyrics are just the same thing. In a simple summary, it's just a few sentences." Ye Kai said.
"What? I really haven't heard of this. Why don't you tell me about it?" Chu Yunsong expressed that he was very interested.
Ye Kai also occasionally thought of a later joke, so he said, "Tang poetry can basically be summarized as: there are otakus in the countryside, and many angry youths in the frontier, chanting about the past can't afford to hurt, and saying goodbye is full of love. And Song poetry can basically be summarized as: petty bourgeoisie
Drinking flower wine, veterans sitting on the bedside, educated youths chanting ancient antiquities on a self-guided tour, the emperor is worried in the palace. The leftover girl stays at home, a lolita marries a prince, a famous lady’s husband dies early, and my sister is in a brothel.”
When Chu Yunsong heard this, the veins on his forehead almost popped out. What is this?
However, after thinking about it carefully, I found that although Ye Kai's summary was a bit difficult to accept, it also had its own unique approach. Chu Yunsong also knew that to this day, comments about Tang poetry and Song lyrics have long been in the public eye.
It is indeed not easy to come up with new ideas. This Ye Kai is just a senior high school student. It is very rare to be able to say such things.
Especially when he thought about these words again, he found them even more interesting.
In fact, whether you are in an officialdom or a business, if you want to stand out, you cannot just follow what others say, but you must have some unique vision and courage. From this point of view, this third generation core figure of the old Ye family,
Sure enough, there are some tricks, and Chu Yunsong, a big shot who controls the economic lifeline of the Chu family, found it very interesting.
However, the more outstanding a disciple is, the more difficult it is to control him. Even just from the perspective of accepting him as his son-in-law, Chu Yunsong feels that he is not very at ease in his heart.
Excellent men will always attract a large group of equally excellent women. If this Ye Kai is really so outstanding, even if his daughter is married, it will be difficult to control him, right?
Thinking of his daughter's life-long event, Chu Yunsong frowned slightly. This matter is difficult to handle.
"Let's go back. We can't keep everyone waiting for a long time, or it's time for Xiaojing to come back." Chu Yunsong thought about it over and over again, and finally came to this sentence.
Ye Kai nodded in agreement, thinking that he had finally passed this round of testing.
