Self-cultivation of male support

The few people ate and drank, and they didn't forget to ask Miner for a cup of soft and delicious lean meat porridge, with a little icing sugar, so that Miner's mouth was sweet.

Don't look like he is the mainstay of the dude circle in Beijing, but seriously, his education is not bad, there will be no messy scenes during the meal, and everyone's eating posture is very elegant and stylish.

Friends surnamed Zhang, surnamed Mingcai Zhang, were the youngest sons of Mr. Zhang, Minister of the Household Department.

There is also a chain of contempt in the playboy circle. Those who are purely arty have a certain ability to be elegant, and they look down on Shiyan and the others who drink all day long, listen to music, go shopping in brothels, and love beauty but are not good at it.

Those who just drink, listen to music, and go shopping in brothels are fond of beauty but don't know how to use it. They look down on those who hang around flowers all day and hang out with prostitutes.

Those who linger around the flowers all day long and look down on those who bully men and women on the street and rob women.

All of the above are dandies because they have the ability to make them dandies. These dandies collectively look down on one kind of person, that is, they have no backer, and they act as dog legs for other dandies and pretend to be dandies outside.

Shi Yan and the others belong to the second type, drinking, listening to music, and visiting brothels, liking beauty and paying attention to what you like, being restrained but not addicted, staying in the same place when they like it, and looking down on the one who never touches their hands kind.

As far as the original body Shi Yan is concerned, the physical weakness is purely caused by excessive drinking and irregular work and rest.

Shi Yan thought, maybe it was because there were too many good-looking maids at home since childhood, and she was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, so she was not interested in those outside.

I'm so big, I haven't even touched a girl's hand, purely because I feel that ordinary people like you are not worthy of taking advantage of me.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Shi Yan opened the folding fan with a "snap" and fanned himself. Zhang Mingcai and the others saw the four characters "Heavenly Destiny and Merry" on Shi Yan's fan, and they were amazed.

"Brother Chu, madness or you madness, why didn't I think of this trick? Take out this fan, it should be so popular! Hehe, who wrote this word? It looks really good! Tell me, I'll ask someone to get me one like this later!"

Shi Yan snorted coldly: "Aren't you afraid that if you take this thing out, your adults will break your legs?" He didn't say that he wrote this word, anyway, no one would believe it.

Zhang Mingcai chuckled: "How can it be? It must be well hidden at home, how could it be discovered by the family members? Don't you look down on brothers?"

Several other people looked at the arty fans in their hands. The paintings were either landscapes or flower sketches.

A few people immediately promised Shi Yan a lot of good things, and wanted Shi Yan to introduce this great calligrapher, but Shi Yan didn't shirk: "Well, that person who doesn't follow his opinions, I also worked for a long time before I came here. Deputy, if you have any requests, I will pass them on after you have said them, and I will write them to you if they can be fulfilled, and if they cannot be fulfilled, I can only talk about them later."

Zhang Mingcai thanked Shi Yan again, and then talked about another family matter: "Brother Chu, will you be able to come and go freely in the future? Can our brothers go to your door to wait for you?"

Shi Yan rolled his eyes angrily: "How can it be? I ran out of the dog hole with my niece today, and I guess a beating will be inevitable when I go back. Let's be more peaceful recently!"

Several people immediately revealed expressions of understanding and sympathy, expressing their admiration for Shi Yan's boldness.

Zhang Mingcai rolled his eyes, and asked curiously: "Then what do you do for fun in the mansion all day long? People like us are locked up at home and do nothing, it's almost like dying, I don't believe you can be obedient obedient."

Shi Yanxin said, I almost dug the house three feet away, I looked at the old man's treasures over and over three times, the whole Bo mansion has no secrets from me, but I really can't say anything about it.

So he said: "I got a few new picture books, which are very interesting, not boring."

Zhang Mingcai became interested as soon as he heard it: "What? Speaking of which, I'll let someone buy it and have a look."

Shi Yan waved his hand, took it out of his sleeve, and slapped the picture book "The Wind and Moon Records of the Princes of the Former Dynasty" that he had brought with him on the dining table with a "snap": "That's it, I find it very interesting, and I have something to do with it." A very grand plan!"

Zhang Mingcai was curious, so he picked it up and glanced at it first, but he didn't see any difference from the previous drawing book: "This is not as exciting as Mr. Wuliu's painting of avoiding fire!"

After finishing speaking, he remembered that there was still a child beside him, so he quickly covered his mouth and pretended nothing happened.

Shi Yan rolled his eyes, put away the folding fan, opened the scripture book, turned to the place he had shown to Rong Anbo, pointed to the line of text and explained it to several people in a low voice, making sure that Min'er would not hear anything: "See? It is said here that there is an island country near the southeast coast. The women on the island are very charming, and they are very good at serving men. They are more docile than the tigress in our family.

It is also said that the people on the island are very rich. The reason why they are so rich is that there are considerable silver mines near the island. "

Shi Yan opened the folding fan with a "snap", and said with a smile: "I'm going to find a few fishermen and ask them to go over there to have a look. If they really find something, wouldn't it be a great achievement? If they don't find it, I'll have them taken away in the future." The experience at sea is compiled into a book, and it can be blown out for many years!

Which dude in Beijing can be as big as me?Is this enough to have a face? "

When Zhang Ming thought about it, he felt that there was a lot of face-to-face, what an arty, a dude who took Wu Daozi's paintings and Wang Xizhi's calligraphy appreciation all day long, which was nothing new.

If you can really organize people to go around the sea, you will definitely be able to have a good time in the capital's dandy circle.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ming slapped the table and said excitedly, "Brother Chu, how about adding me? I want that kind of noodles too!"

The rest of the people responded one after another, wanting to have a meeting with Shi Yan.

Shi Yan thought for a while, reluctantly: "Well, I will sort out a document later, and I will definitely need a detailed charter to go to sea. I can't just shout a few slogans. Let's see you at another time."

Min'er watched curiously as her second uncle smiled and made an agreement with her friend on something she didn't understand. It was completely unexpected that these few people who were called dandies in Beijing would be the founders and leaders of the era of great voyages in the future.

Now she is just a poor little girl who is held in the arms of her second uncle and dare not go home, discussing how to face her elders' censure when she returns home.

"Why don't we go back through the dog hole!" Min'er suggested.

Shi Yan was very experienced and said: "Impossible, don't think about it, you and I disappeared at the same time all morning, if the servants at home can't find out, we will definitely be punished, we have only one choice now, that is to obediently walk back through the main entrance. "

Then he whispered: "If we go back through the dog hole now, our only dog ​​hole will be exposed, and we will definitely not be able to get out of it in the future."

Min'er said: "Then if grandpa punishes you, Min'er will help you plead."

It's a pity that Rong Anbo was really angry this time, not only Rong Anbo was angry, but the whole family in Bo's house criticized Shi Yan, and Min'er's intercession was useless.

When Shi Yan knelt in front of Rong Anbo, Rong Anbo breathed out fragrance: "Are you going to piss me off? Do you know that you sneaked out with Min'er without saying hello, and the family servants found that Min'er was missing?" How anxious are we? Now that the house is in such a mess, what if something happens?"

Shi Yan whispered: "If I say hello, you must not let us go out! Besides, didn't there be any accidents?"

Mrs. Uncle said: "A Yan, you don't care about your reputation, but do you think about Min'er? Your daughter is going through dog holes with others, is there any nice thing to say?"

Shi Yan whispered: "Then why don't we talk about it?"

Sister-in-law Liu said: "In case someone tells me that I have slipped up in the future, how embarrassing will Miner be in front of my little sister?"

Shi Yan whispered: "If you laugh at Min'er for such a trivial matter, you must not be good sisters. Among us dude friends, we don't say things that others don't want to hear. Why are noble girls and sisters not as educated as a group of dudes? "

Eldest brother Chu Zhaoyan said: "This wind can't last long, what if Min'er is spoiled by you, thinking about running outside every day, what should I do? She doesn't look like a girl!"

Shi Yan said loudly: "Brother, what you said is wrong. What is the appearance of a girl? Do you stay at home and embroider every day? Then I will see how your majesty's princesses are obedient to the concubine's training." , the son-in-law wants to enter the princess's house, but he has to ask for instructions in advance? Is this what a girl should look like??

I looked at the daughters of the poor folks, following their fathers and brothers to farm, and following their mothers along the streets to subsidize their living. Is this what a girl should be like? "

Eldest brother Chu Zhaoyan was angry: "That's incomparable to our family's situation!"

Shi Yan said loudly: "Speaking of it, what a girl should look like is determined by the ability of a father and brother? If someone dares to gossip about Min'er, it shows that you and your father, brother, your hard work Not enough, the position is not high enough.

I watched the eldest princess's daughter having an affair with a calligraphy and painting scholar, we insiders had to pretend not to know it, and helped cover it up, for fear that others would find out that we knew about it.

It can be seen that there is no fixed appearance for a girl. Brother, if you want Miner not to be talked about behind others in the future, it is not to teach me how to behave, but to work hard and make yourself the one who is above ten thousand people !

If you have no skills, don't blame others. As a dude son like me, I know that when I meet a dude with a higher status outside and is humiliated by others, I will try to find a way to get back the place. The reason is to go home and ask your parents for help. "

Shi Yan slammed his mouth, and successfully made Rong Anbo and his eldest brother Chu Zhaoyan blow their hair. Without saying a word, he asked the big housekeeper to drag him down, and he was beaten ten times in front of everyone, and locked into the ancestral hall.

No one can stop it.

In fact, except for Min'er, no one wanted to stop him, even the old lady was shocked by Shi Yan's earth-shattering remarks, and wanted to teach Shi Yan a lesson so that Shi Yan could improve his memory.

Only Min'er sneaked into the ancestral hall in the evening when no one was around, and said to Shi Yan with bright eyes: "Second Uncle, Min'er thinks what you said makes sense, girls don't have the fixed appearance they should have, mother and the others are wrong .”

Shi Yan ate the big meat buns brought by his niece, and rubbed his greasy hands on her head: "Then what kind of woman do you want to be? Let me tell you in advance, second uncle is definitely not good! Second uncle is unique. It is impossible to imitate and copy, and it is too difficult to become the second uncle, so the second uncle suggests that you first set a small goal."

Min'er's eyes sparkled: "Which small goal should I set?"

Shi Yan thought for a while, and said casually: "How about the Empress Dowager Wenjing from the previous dynasty?"

Min'er was puzzled: "Who is that?"

"Second Uncle has to tell you everything, so what's the matter? Go back and read by yourself." After eating and drinking enough, Shi Yan began to chase people away, "The steamed stuffed buns stuffed with mushrooms and meat that I brought this time are too salty, remember to bring something lighter tomorrow Yes, otherwise it is easy to get angry."

"Oh, I got it! Min'er will bring it to you tomorrow morning!"
