Lord, it's the Fourth Lord

Chapter 10 Mr. Nian's Way of Education

As the sun was setting, Li Momo also came to remind me and my elder brother that it was time to have dinner with my parents.Although I moved out of my own house, I don't usually see my parents, but every day, unless my father has official business, we will go to the main house for dinner.

After eating, we will go through the east corridor, go to the main hall, and enter the study next to the main hall.

The study room is very simple. When you open the door, you can see a large wooden table and a chair behind it. The backrest of the chair and the grid under the armrest are carved with green bamboo and pine cranes respectively.

On the back wall is a landscape painting of high mountains and flowing water, and the vertical scrolls on both sides read "There is no fear, there is fear, and there is nothing to do." I also have a little insight into this.The painting is of high mountains and flowing water, which looks like an idyllic place, but when you savor it carefully, you can only feel that the mountains are too high-dangerous peaks; the water is too fast-turbulent;

Looking back to the tabletop, there is an inkstone on the left hand side of the tabletop (as I entered the door and looked in, my left hand side was actually on the right hand side when the owner was using it).On the right side of the inkstone is a pen holder, on which there is a writing brush, and the tip of the pen faces the entrance of the room. On the left side of the inkstone, there is a connected flower stand under the edge of the table, and a lamp is placed on it.

On the far right side of the desk is a large and a small box, which should be used to hold memorials and other documents!In the middle of the table is a stack of papers with paperweights on top.There is a big bookshelf against the wall on the left side of the study room, which almost covers the whole wall (this is only needed for daily use, there is a library building on the west side of the main courtyard, which is used to collect books), and the top is neatly filled with books. .

There is a smaller desk next to the wall on the right. On the table is a blue and white porcelain scroll jar, with a few scrolls randomly inserted in it.This small desk is leaning against the window. From the window, you can see the small garden outside. There are a few pots of bonsai and a few plum trees randomly placed in it, but they are neatly trimmed and grow well. It can be seen that the owner usually hard work.There is a small stool on the left and right sides of the painting table.The woodwork in the entire study is made of huanghuali.

Every time we came in, Dad would sit directly on the main seat, while my elder brother and I sat on the small stools on the left and right sides of the painting table, listening to him talk about the court affairs, not long, about a quarter of an hour.

Then, we were led by him to the small practice room in the side hall.The training room is very small, about 15 square meters, and there is a soldier platform inside, on which are several simple weapons, such as wild goose knife, oxtail knife and red tasseled spear, ranging in size and weight.But I haven't had a chance to touch it, maybe since I'm still young, so they start every time I leave!

There is not much time to delay here, two quarters of an hour.Each time, the three types of military tactics will be explained, all of which are explained through examples; the three types of various strategic terrains under the territory of the current Qing Dynasty, and even the folk customs of sensitive areas.Throughout the explanation process, the language is simplified.

After that, about three quarters of an hour, Li Meme will wait for me in the main hall and take me back to my courtyard.Oh, now that Li Meme has returned to my courtyard, there are still some maids who clean up in the courtyard, but I don't touch them, and the courtyard is quiet.

We lived in a three-entry house, facing south, divided into the front hall (behind the first gate), the main hall (behind the second gate) and the main courtyard (behind the third gate).Between the main courtyard and the main hall, there is a practice room from the east, and my small courtyard is on the east side of the main courtyard, so it is very close, and no one usually pays attention to my itinerary.

The author has something to say:

From the layout of the study, we can see the contradictions in the old man's personality. He tries hard to be idle and low-key, but he has the rigor and sharpness carved into his bones!
