Seeing Lin Ruhai puzzled, Jia Lian simply reached over, took the top sesame seed cake, and broke it gently.
The golden pastry was broken, revealing a small piece of paper folded and sandwiched in the cake.
Jia Lian took out the note, handed it to Lin Ruhai respectfully with both hands, and continued:
"It's not that my nephew is being mysterious. The reason is a bit ridiculous. It's because he was afraid that my uncle would not pay attention to him, so he wrote the important words in this cake and sent it over."
Lin Ruhai looked down at the note, which read:
"Bluestone Banqiao protects people.
If you disturb the sand mountain rashly, your family will be restless."
I was shocked, but I still pretended to be calm and asked knowingly:
"What does this mean?"
Jia Lian knew that Lin Ruhai was a scholar, so he carefully sorted out the remarks he had prepared last night, and said with a humble attitude:
"To be honest with my uncle, my nephew has limited reading, but he especially loves "The Book of Changes".
In the ancient times, Fu Xi left images of heaven and earth; in the middle ages, King Wen of the Zhou Dynasty performed the teachings of the "Book of Changes"; in modern times, Confucius and his disciples annotated the "Book of Changes" to form the "Book of Changes".
/p>
Such a sage is knowledgeable in subtle ways and understands destiny through humanity.
In "The Book of Changes", my nephew particularly likes the two sentences "Heaven moves vigorously, a gentleman strives to strive for self-improvement" and "The terrain is weak, a gentleman carries things with great virtue".
If a gentleman wants to constantly strive for self-improvement, he will inevitably not 'know what is impossible and do it'. However, the sage also said that 'the golden mean is the virtue', so he must also know how to avoid disaster, 'square but not cutting, honest but not prudent, straight but not prudent'
Si, light but not shining'.
The sage Confucius once said: ‘What can Heaven say? As long as the four seasons move, all things can come into existence.’
Meng Shengren also said: "He who knows his nature knows his nature; if he knows his nature, he knows the heaven."
In the end, 'man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.'
After my nephew read these principles of the unity of nature and man in the book, he felt more and more mysterious. In his spare time, he also learned some Feng Shui techniques.
‘The ancients gathered the vitality so that it would not dissipate, and the movement would stop it, so it was called Feng Shui’.
There are so many mysteries in these classics left by the ancients."
Lin Ruhai was so impressed by his carefully prepared sarcastic remarks about "dropping his book bag" that he actually sat up straight and asked him to continue speaking.
Jia Lian then described in detail the feng shui evil spirits he observed in the Lin family.
During the narration, two more sesame cakes were opened, and there were small notes with the same content inside:
"My nephew was also impatient, and he made my uncle laugh by using such an unflattering trick."
Lin Ruhai looked at the note in the sesame seed cake and didn't think it was funny, but secretly marveled in her heart:
I really underestimated this Jia Lian! This citation of scriptures is quite insightful. How could he be a mediocre person who doesn't read?
Although it is just a matter of Feng Shui, but he is able to explain the truth clearly and logically, which is really remarkable. Looking at his ability to handle affairs and his virtue of saving people without expecting anything in return, he is indeed a talent.
And he brought this note sandwiched in sesame-burning cakes, so he couldn't prepare it in a hurry. It was really unbelievable that he could predict the future.
Decide immediately and order the craftsmen to modify the feng shui of the house tomorrow as Jia Lian said.
I just heard Jia Lian talk about Mingtang's obstruction of "too white", which made me a little suspicious:
If you can see the sky from the main seat in the main hall, can it affect the official luck of the family head? Thinking about it, now that I am the doctor of Lantai Temple, my official luck is pretty good.
What's more, you can "steal half a day's leisure" every day, reading and writing, admiring flowers and playing the piano. Such a relaxing and beautiful job, how free is it?
He has the temperament of an idle person, and his family has a small population, so he has no burden, so he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with his marginalized job.
……
When Jia Lian returned to his room, Xing'er poured some tea. Seeing Jia Lian slumped on the chair, he stepped forward to massage Jia Lian's shoulders.
Jia Lian suddenly took three steps away:
"You kid, don't touch me all the time. I, your second master, have a firm ambition now. I only want to be touched by women."
Xing'er was also startled at first, but after hearing what he said was so serious, he smiled playfully again:
"Is it not easy for the second master to want a woman? With his looks, talents, and family background, as long as the second master likes a woman, which woman can refuse to agree to the second master?"
Jia Lian walked to the bed, put his head on the bed, and stretched out.
After he finished rubbings last night, he asked Xing'er to take him out in a hurry to find Que Ge'er's brother Aqing to help him make sesame cakes. After he came back, he had to look through books to find chapters and excerpts, draft them and memorize them, and prepare for today
I went to find Lin Ruhai to open up the situation, and I didn’t go to bed until after the fourth watch.
At this time, he was a little sleepy, rolling back and forth on the bed to relieve his fatigue, and talking nonsense:
"I want many women... I want Sister Lin, I want Sister Bao, I also want Sister Qing, Sister Hong, Sister Lan, Sister Aso Nozomi..."
Xing'er didn't know the origin of the string of sisters behind him, but after hearing the first "Sister Lin", he immediately became energetic:
"Hey, the second master finally met Miss Lin today? What does Miss Lin look like? Is she really as beautiful as the legend says? Does she look like a fairy in the sky?"
Jia Lian was still saying, "I want Duoduorong, I want ***..." Hearing this, he suddenly stopped:
"What? I've never seen Lin Daiyu?"
Xing'er stepped forward:
“Second Master, didn’t Mr. Lin say that their precious girl ‘has no relatives or friends except her parents’?
We will be setting off back to Beijing after Miss Lin in a few days, so we should at least see what she looks like.
You can't ask us to wrap Miss Lin in red cloth from head to toe, right?"
"That's a mummy sent to the museum."
Xing'er didn't understand Jia Lian's complaint, but seeing the familiar nonchalant look on his face, he laughed and laughed with confidence:
"If you accidentally turn around and pick up a fake girl Lin, won't it be troublesome?"
"Miss Jia Lin? Is the husband's surname the same here?"
Xing'er didn't understand, so he could only continue to look at Jia Lian's face - it was normal. The second master, who was still rolling around in bed lazily, still had the familiar, irregular expression. The second master was very normal.
"Oh, I'm a human being. I'm sorry. This world is always full of malice towards me, who is weak. The shock is always greater than the surprise. Maybe, if we really meet, my biological mother, this sister Lin is still a
An authentic Tiger tank..."
His casual remarks made Xing'er completely confused: What the second master said was human language, but why can't people understand him?
After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively stretched out his hand to touch Jia Lian's forehead:
"What kind of guest is this? Whose wife is Hu's guest? Does the second master have a fever? This slave can't even understand this nonsense."
Jia Lian opened Xing'er's hand:
"I told you not to touch me! If you touch me again, I will kick you away!"
Xing'er was confused, grinned, and grumbled for a long time, but still had the courage to ask:
"Second Master, I obey your orders and don't touch Second Master.
Is it okay for the little one to just be honest and wait for the second master to touch the little one?"
Jia Lian sat up, looked at the young man in front of him who could become famous just because of his appearance, and said seriously:
"Can we not touch each other in the future?
Can you accompany your second master and me to think about women together?
Can you allow me, your second master, to be a straight man in a down-to-earth manner?"
Suddenly he heard someone coming outside the window, Jia Lian quickly shut up.
Just listen to Butler Lin say respectfully:
"Our master and the girl are in good health. The master specially asked the old slave to invite Mr. Jia to have dinner together."
