[Comprehensive martial arts] I fall into the city

The ball of paper was passed around, but there was no movement for a while.

Li Ning didn't care, she put aside the pen and ink, and continued to practice the knife.

Her current knife is just a wooden knife, as short as a dagger, but it is light, but this time, before practicing for a while, the ball of paper over there was passed on again, but this time it was replaced with a new piece of paper, which read: " You don't read?"

The scribbled handwriting well reflects the owner's chaotic state of mind.

Li Ning couldn't help but smiled, and replied, "I've finished reading."

The other party obviously didn't believe it, and the voice of reading was a little louder. Li Ning took the initiative to throw a ball of paper this time, and what was written on it was exactly one of the "Li" that the boy read.

The little boy quickly threw another ball of paper with big words written on it, as if to prove something, and said, "I'm memorizing!"

Li Ning was a little surprised. "Ritual" is one of the Five Classics. Hearing the voice of the little boy who was no more than ten years old, the content that he read aloud in the courtyard every day was actually reciting?

At this time, people are gentlemen, and the person on the other side didn't think that Li Ning was copying, and Li Ning didn't think that the other side was lying. Across the courtyard wall, the voice of the child reciting became louder. Only then did Li Ning notice that although the reading sound on the other side was smooth, There are pauses from time to time, which is very natural, and it is indeed the unique rhythm of reciting.

After stopping for a while, the boy seemed to be tired from his back. There were footsteps in the courtyard, and then there was no movement.

Li Ning practiced martial arts for another morning. After noon, she taught Xiangling to write in the back room. Xiangling went out for a while, and suddenly came back with a handful of paper balls.

Li Ning hurriedly brought over the balls of paper and opened them one by one, only to see that for a while it was "Where did you read", and for a while it was "How old are you?" There was a ball of ink, as if something had been scribbled on it. On the side of the ink ball was written the word Shouren, and at the bottom of the paper ball was a big nine characters, presumably it was his age.

If it was a normal girl, she would be ashamed to death at this moment. Li Ning just touched her nose, feeling a little guilty for missing the ball of paper, and then took a piece of paper to reply to the letter.

Wang Shouren was sitting on the edge of the rockery in his yard, holding a pretentious book of rites in his hand, and inside the book of ceremonies was a book of mountains and seas with pictures. I have flipped through it countless times, but there is nothing I can do. There are not many idle books in his father's study, and the Book of Mountains and Seas is the most interesting one.

The kid on the opposite side who said he was going to practice martial arts to strengthen his body was quiet in the afternoon, and Wang Shouren had tossed several paper balls before realizing that this person only made movements in the early morning. But after a while, he adjusted his mood by himself, anyway, the worst thing was to be scolded.

At this moment, a white shadow passed in front of Wang Shouren's eyes. He immediately reacted, picked up the ball of paper, and saw that it wrote "Li Ning" in flamboyant handwriting on it. Character.

Wang Shouren looked at the handwriting in amazement. Although he had seen it a few times, he still wanted to give it a thumbs up. He said that he could write according to others, but children's wrists are weak, and no matter how serious the handwriting is, it is inevitable that it will be light. At the age of [-], the bones in his wrists have grown hard, so the handwriting will be strong. If he hadn't actually heard the delicate voice of the boy next door, he would not have dared to recognize the words.

Wang Shouren has always heard that those high-ranking families will exercise their wrist strength when teaching their children to practice calligraphy, just to practice a good handwriting early, and now it is well-deserved to see it. This boy is three years younger than him, but he can already write silently The book of rites is worthy of being the son of the servant's family.

The reason why he is identified as the son is also due to experience. The Wang family is a scholarly family. Although the sisters in the clan have to study, they can only read a few words. Usually, they have to learn needlework before they are ten years old. On weekdays, these sisters He also doesn't hang out with his brothers at home. After the age of seven, Wang Shouren can only see his sisters from the same clan at New Year's Eve. Who would have thought that a little boy who got up early every day to practice martial arts, read the book of rites, and had a rare good handwriting would be girl?

Ever since he came to the capital, Wang Shouren has been a bit bored. He still has brothers from the same clan to play with at home. When he arrives in the middle of the capital, he doesn't even know his father, let alone find playmates. Li Shilang, he has already climbed over the wall to make friends.

Although passing letters by paper balls is interesting, it cannot satisfy Wang Shouren, who is naturally curious.

Li Ning unwrapped the new paper ball, saw it and asked, "Can you come out?"

When the ball of paper was thrown over, Wang Shouren was actually ready to run towards the door, but Young Master Li still replied with his ostentatious handwriting, "No."

Wang Shouren sighed.

Summer is boring and we can't see each other again, so Wang Shouren flipped through the Shan Hai Jing that was about to be smashed by him, threw a ball of paper, and asked without any hope: "Do you have any free books to read?"

The idle books of this season are not those pornographic books such as "The West Chamber" and "Huizhen", but refer to unofficial history, collections of jokes, and strange stories.

If it is really the son of the servant's family, there is a high probability that there is no one. Li Ning is different. Li Che seldom brings home official business. The study is full of idle books to relieve boredom. This strange book.

The ball of paper was thrown over, but the servant boy didn't come back.

Wang Shouren guessed that this young official probably regarded him as an ignorant bastard, so he couldn't help but sighed again.

At this moment, a book in a blue envelope suddenly flew over from the courtyard wall and landed on the edge of the rockery. Wang Shouren glanced at the title of the book, and his heart couldn't help but jump.

It was a book of "Tui Bei Tu". Anyone who has read the history of Tang Dynasty would not be curious about such a mysterious book?

However, this is not all. Not long after, another set of "Sou Shen Ji" was thrown over, followed by "Shu Yi Zhi", and after "Shu Yi Zhi", another set of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

While Wang Shouren quickly picked up the book and hid it in the rockery, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of bastard the servant boy next door was.

Li Ning threw a dozen or so books back and forth, reckoning it would be enough for the boy opposite to read for a while, then threw a ball of paper and asked him if there was anything else he wanted to read, and she could help find it.

The other person replied "I'll finish it first" in a scrawled and light tone.

It wasn't that Wang Shouren didn't want to, but that he couldn't say what book he wanted. After all, the content of the Water Margin was only what he had heard from his brothers of the same clan.

Wang Shouren threw another ball of paper, and forgot about the young servant who was opposite him, and immersed himself in the sea of ​​idle books.

Just like this, he kept his eyes on six roads and his ears on all sides. Whenever someone passed by in the yard, even if it was just a cook helping the kitchen, he would still use his mind for two purposes, reciting the content of the ritual scriptures aloud.

After the silence next door, Li Ning breathed a sigh of relief and continued to teach Xiangling how to read and write.

Such a summer passed.

In the autumn, Wang Shouren read a lot of idle books, and he recited in a recitation during a check, and was recognized by Wang Hua, who was also familiar with idle books, and finally exposed the rockery collection.

I bought the book by myself, so I might get a beating. To be honest, the book was borrowed by the servant next door. When he was beaten up, the servant next door might also be beaten. Wang Shouren's little head was spinning Walking around, his eyes showed determination, and he chose to bear it all.

The fart is solely responsible.

Wang Hua, a number one scholar, still has a bright mind, which is due to the arduous education methods of the Wang family. For a child as old as Wang Shouren, let alone the money to buy idle books, it is impossible to have even a copper coin. I asked my wife to confirm The wife didn't give the pocket money behind her back, so Wang Hua deduced the source of the idle book.

Wang Shouren was like a sluggish duck, carried by his father to the next door.

The examiner is not the chief examiner, but it must be about the relationship. Naturally, Wang Hua can also call Li Che a teacher, but after all, he is at this age, so he is not embarrassed, so every time he bumps into him, he just calls Li Che Master Li .

After hearing Wang Hua's intention, Mr. Li not only did not call his son to beat him up on the spot, but also promised not to throw idle books to the next door. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's just a few books. Young Master Wang wants to read, why bother?" Don't let him see it."

Wang Hua never expected that Li Che would say that. He coughed lightly, and said, "After reading such idle books for a long time, I will lose my temper."

Li Che said gently: "It's the same after reading the scriptures for a long time. Mr. Wang's eyes are clear and clear. It's rare for him to be a lively child. Brother Wang, don't let the child be meddlesome."

Wang Hua knew that whoever's family swept the snow, Li Che was definitely not speaking for his own son, but protecting his own child. Although he was gentle, he clearly didn't think his child was wrong, so he couldn't help but sigh. With a sigh of relief, he said yes.

Li Che smiled, glanced at Wang Shouren again, and said, "If you want to read books in the future, just come to me to borrow them. To tell you the truth, Brother Wang, those books are mine."

Wang Shouren couldn't help but secretly sighed, it would be great if it was his father.

Coming out of the Li family, the father and son of the Wang family were silent for a while. Although Wang Hua touched his nose, he rarely felt uncomfortable. He glanced at his son who was still listless, patted him on the back of the head, and shouted : "I have lost my heart in other people's families. I don't care how other people's families teach them, as long as you don't think about those foolish things in the future."

Wang Shouren said quietly: "Father, do you think Mr. Li passed the imperial examination so early because he wanted to read idle books?"

Wang Hua choked for a moment, thinking of the idle books he had hidden in the interlayer of the bookcase in the study, coughed heavily, and before he could say anything, he heard Wang Shouren say again: "If I am also 15 years old and become the champion, can I read anything I want?" What book did you read?"

Wang Hua slapped his son on the back of the head again, and said, "It's still daytime, is this a dream?"

Wang Shouren clutched the back of his head, more and more wanting to change his father with the servant boy.
