Chapter 33: A Happy Life in the Song Dynasty

(Please vote for recommendations, please vote for recommendations!)

-

Chen Ke’s homework was naturally affected by all the hard work he put into preparing for the opening of Laifu.[]

In Chen Xiliang's view, nothing is more important than studying. Now that Laifu has become an instant hit, his future management will not be a problem. He no longer turns a blind eye, but wants to use overwhelming lessons to reassure his son.

In the past three months, Chen Ke copied "Guangyun" twice and meditated once. His regular calligraphy skills are already impressive, and he can basically master the rhyme... What shocked Chen Xiliang the most was his abnormal memory.

.Ordinary scholars would need a year to memorize even "Yun Lue" in general, but Chen Ke could already memorize "Guang Yun" from memory.

Chen Xiliang is the one who took a year to memorize "Yun Lue". It is really annoying that people are more popular than others. Well, the stronger the ability, the heavier the homework, but you have to see where your limit is.

So we entered the second lesson - 'Exegesis'. Using contemporary language to explain the meaning of words is called 'Execution', and using contemporary language to explain ancient language is called 'Exegesis'. Therefore, exegesis is a science that specializes in explaining ancient words and sentences.

Chen Xiliang ordered Sanlang to copy a series of exegetical classics such as "Erya", "Shi Xunzhuan", "Mao Shi Zhengyi" and so on, and required him to recite the full text.

The coursework is so heavy that poor Saburo can only stay in seclusion for the next few days and learn from him: "He who calls me uncle, I call him nephew", "The hall next to the door is called a private school", "The highest level of education"

For it, Jing; for non-human beings, Qiu', 'a dog's four feet is a mastiff'... What comforted me was that he was finally freed from the labor of three meals a day.

Every morning, shortly after Toutuo announces the dawn, a waiter from the breakfast shop on the front street will come with a load to deliver the meal. There are many varieties of breakfast, and they almost never change for a long time. For example, steamed buns stuffed with pork were served the day before, and they will be served yesterday.

White meat pancakes, pork pancreas pancakes, vegetable pancakes, and other pancakes. Today we will eat shredded chicken noodles, three fresh noodles, bamboo shoots and pork noodles, and other soup pancakes. Tomorrow, there may be ring pancakes and cooking pancakes.

These various meals, accompanied by two-meter porridge, two-year-old soup, and various refreshing cold dishes, cost twenty-five yuan per meal, which means you have to live on eight hundred yuan a month... The breakfast supply is left to one's own thrift, of course not

Schools are so expensive, but Chen Xiliang does not care about the cost in order to keep his children well fed.

After breakfast, Chen Xiliang and Erlang went out. Chen Ke had to supervise the study of his two younger brothers while studying. Near noon, a boy from Laifu came to the door with a food box. Although there were only three children eating, Chuanfu every

For every meal, four dishes and one soup are prepared, with meat and vegetables mixed in. There is no confusion.

After lunch, put the tableware back into the food box. In the evening, the waiter will come over with another food box and take away the lunch one... Because there are many people eating in the evening, Chuanfu will add two dishes. Chen Xiliang

I felt very sorry and often went over to help at night.

In any case, the food problem for the five father and son has been completely solved... This is really worth celebrating for a family without women. However, everything has its advantages and disadvantages, that is, the three brothers who were still skinny in the spring have become little ones.

Signs of fatness.

Liulang was chubby and cute, but Chen Ke couldn't tolerate him becoming fat... In Shu, where people generally have thin bodies, fat people are discriminated against. So he discussed with his father that he should take his brothers with him in addition to homework.

Exercise.

Chen Xiliang himself had learned kung fu, so he naturally did not want his sons to become weak scholars without the strength to restrain a chicken, so he deeply believed in Chen Ke's suggestion.

So every morning before dawn, he took Wu Lang to run around the county town. After returning home, he would practice according to the army recruit training outline. Of course, there was no need to goose step or stand in line. After practicing, he was sweating profusely, and then he took a shower.

He would take a bath and have breakfast, and at noon and afternoon, he would take Liu Lang to do a set of military gymnastics. He had to work hard to get rid of the meat he had eaten.

In this regard, Wulang once asked philosophically: "It's so hard, why don't you eat less?"

"Life lies in movement." Chen Ke also answered philosophically.

Wulang didn't understand, so Chen Ke simply answered: "I spent my strength and gained strength."

Wulang still didn't understand, so Chen Ke could only say with a dark face: "You can't just skip eating just because you need to excrete..."

"I see..." Wulang suddenly realized.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This morning, Chen Ke was doing push-ups in a push-up competition with Wu Lang. Liu Lang was cheering on the side when he suddenly heard a knock at the door outside.

"You're here to deliver food so early?" Chen Ke jumped up from the ground, put on his singlet casually, opened the door and saw that it was Carpenter Pan. He was leading two apprentices, pushing two large carts.

"Uncle Pan, you went to the wrong door." Chen Ke said with a smile, "Our family didn't buy any furniture."

"That's right, it's for your family." Carpenter Pan carried a brand-new official hat chair on his back and said with sweat on his head: "Quickly find a place to put it down!"

"Oh..." Chen Ke was a little stunned, but still got out of the way.

Carpenter Pan ordered his apprentices to push the cart in, unload the tables, chairs, benches, desks, coffee tables and other furniture on it, and use fresh red camphor wood... Although it is not as precious as yellow pear wood, in this era, it is already the best.

The materials are used, the workmanship is meticulous, and the paint is applied elegantly. At first glance, it is a work of sincerity.

After unloading the truck, Carpenter Pan asked his apprentices to move the furniture into the house, while he took off his carpenter's bag from the truck to unload the rotten doors and windows.

Chen Ke finally reacted, grabbed him and said, "What is this?"

"Last time I came here, I saw that the furniture, doors and windows in Sanlang's house were so ugly." Carpenter Pan couldn't help but said, he removed a window, broke it into two pieces with his hands, handed it to Chen Ke and said, "Look,

This one is all rotten." He threw it on the ground and went to unload another one and said, "Isn't this a slap in the face? I have long thought about replacing it with a new one for Sanlang's house, but the owner of the goods was too busy and could only do it every day.

I'll add a little bit here and there, and it won't be finished until the day before yesterday." He pointed to the furniture outside and said, "After it dries a little, I'll bring it to you." The paint in this era was collected from natural lacquer trees, which is non-toxic and pollution-free, and can be used with confidence.

.

"Thank you..." Chen Ke said with some emotion: "How much is the total?"

"Are you asking for money?" Carpenter Pan shook his head and said, "I will be laughed at by my two apprentices." He said with a look of complacency on his face: "Do you know how upright it will be to book this month?"

"One hundred strings?" Chen Ke smiled.

"A whole five hundred strings!" Carpenter Pan stretched out his rough hand and grinned.

"So many?" Chen Ke asked in surprise: "Aren't you afraid of holding on?"

"We can't survive. We bought a new yard and hired ten workers," Carpenter Pan said carelessly, "My two apprentices are now masters."

"Congratulations." Chen Ke cupped his fists and said, "I didn't expect that our county market is so big."

"Of course our county alone can't do it. The wood merchants from neighboring counties came to order." Carpenter Pan scratched his head and said: "The prefect's yamen and the yamen of each county also came to order, but they only gave me half the price. I don't know whether to agree or not.

.”

"Of course I agreed," Chen Ke said decisively: "How many sets do you want in total?"

"Total up, I'm afraid it will cost a hundred sets." Carpenter Pan said heartbrokenly.

"If you listen to me, just give it away for free," Chen Ke said.

"Free gift, why?"

"Why?" Chen Ke said: "Always upright and upright are so popular, someone will soon imitate them. Although you have already registered with the government, as a native of your hometown, you must turn a blind eye. How much loss will it cause you? Selling the government's personal favor,

Although counterfeiting cannot be eliminated, counterfeiting can still be banned. Besides, you will be a businessman with status in the future, and you will inevitably have to deal with the government. This is a good opportunity to build relationships."

"That's it." Carpenter Pan nodded heavily and grinned: "Sanlang is very insightful. Your words alone are worth the money of these furniture."

Carpenter Pan and his apprentice worked for a long time, replacing all the doors and windows of the three rooms and the courtyard door. The rooms were also equipped with brand-new official hat chairs, the Eight Immortals table, spacious and elegant bookcases, bookshelves... and even a

A huge eight-step bed. It took more than half a month to build this bed alone. This shows that Carpenter Pan is telling the truth.

Naturally, he had to take care of the food at noon, and the food delivered by the restaurant was certainly not enough. Chen Ke went to the street to buy fresh ingredients, cooked four dishes himself, and also took out two jars of wine from the east room and placed them under the shade of the tree.

A full table.

Seeing the tempting stir-fry dishes on the table, Carpenter Pan opened his eyes wide and said, "You really taught Boss Cai his magical skills!" He is also a popular figure in the county now, so naturally he has tasted Chuanfu's craftsmanship at Laifu Hotel.

"Haha, I guess..." Chuanfu had been coming in and out of his house for two months, and everyone in the neighborhood knew about it, so there was no way he could hide this kind of thing.

"It's amazing! There's nothing to say, Sanlang is a god!" Pan Carpenter pointedly pointed at Brother Thumb, and his two apprentices also nodded vigorously, admiring him to the ground.

"I'm embarrassed to say that." Chen Ke held the wine jar and poured wine for Pan Carpenter and his apprentice: "This is home-brewed, let's try how it tastes."

The orange-red wine was slowly poured into the bowl from the mouth of the jar, and there was a fragrance of orange in the air. Before they drank it, the master and the disciples felt it was pleasing to the eye, and they stretched their noses to smell it.

Chen Ke said regretfully: "You have to use a glass to show the benefits of this wine..."

But he was undoubtedly playing the piano to a cow. Master Pan Carpenter and his apprentice had already picked up the wine bowl, drank the wine, wiped their mouths, and laughed loudly: "Good wine! Good wine!"
