Xiang Zhong could understand that Mrs. Xiang had malicious intentions towards him and was very wary to begin with. When she suddenly walked up behind him, he couldn't help but feel the hairs on the back of his neck stand up and feel a chill.
Mrs. Xiang began her performance: when Xiang Zheng held him up and spun him, she threw the jade pendant behind his back. She gently grabbed it and pretended to be considerate, and helped him turn to the front, using extremely exaggerated gestures. Slow motion, put it back into the collar at the chest.
Everyone can hear the hint in that sentence: She made everyone present see with their own eyes that this brat who has not officially entered the family tree actually got the crown gift in advance when he was supposed to be crowned. The "Xiang Family Jade Pendant" that is eligible to be awarded from the head of the family, and this kind of thing is what she specially reminded everyone, "something that Zheng Er does not have". Who is not following the etiquette and breaking the rules of the Xiang family.
Sure enough, this matter that was not in line with the "etiquette" was naturally something that Mr. Guan Ya couldn't ignore. He couldn't control his "teeth" anymore. Then he turned to Doctor Xiang and said to Mrs. Xiang, "Mr. Xiang, I don't know Zhong'er." When will you be able to join the Xiang clan? I know that the clan law says that only the children of this clan can be crowned and awarded the Xiang clan jade pendant when they are weak. I don’t understand what I see today. I dare to ask Dr. Xiang to help. If we tell the whole story clearly, we will be able to prove that we will not mess with our own learning, so that we can set our sights straight and avoid misleading others in the future!"
Seeing that her provocation was successful, Mrs. Xiang couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and cast an approving glance at Mr. Zhan Ya, then stared back at Doctor Xiang, waiting for his husband's response.
Xiang Zheng didn't take it seriously, but after hearing this discussion, he took Xiang Zhong's jade pendant out of his chest, played with it carefully, and carefully admired the decoration on the jade pendant. The carving is exquisite, surrounded by a circle of winding dragon patterns, with the word "文" in large seal script in the middle.
"It turns out that brother Zhong'er has a jade pendant with the word '文'!" Xiang Zhong watched carefully and finished it. After satisfying his curiosity, he carefully stuffed the jade pendant back into Xiang Zhong's collar.
I really didn't expect that in just a moment, the jade pendant in front of my neck would be thrown out, turned back, stuffed in, stuffed out, and stuffed back in again several times. Xiang Zhongxin thought: "I have Jia Jia." Baoyu's treatment? I haven't seen Lin Daiyu who cares about it! But Mrs. Xiang, on the other hand, treats it as a sword to attack me. I have to protect myself, the one who comes is not good!"
Xiang Xu looked calm, smiled at a circle of doubters, and said: "I know it is not in line with etiquette, but common etiquette is only suitable for ordinary people, and Chong'er is not comparable to ordinary people, so he received an extraordinary treatment."
"Oh? We don't know what is different about Chong'er, a three-year-old child, who is different from ordinary people? Is it because he can't understand what we say, and his hearing is different from ordinary people? I don't know if Xiang Jiayu Pei Zhong has a use , Is this an act of mercy?" Guan Ya continued to increase his attack firepower relentlessly.
Hearing Guan Ya attacking Chong'er's congenital ear disease, Mrs. Xiang couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth even higher, thinking: "This pedantic guy also has beautiful things to say!"
Xiang Xu was not in a hurry to argue, but turned to Xiang Zheng and asked him: "Zheng'er, what is the word you are talking about? Let me tell you gentlemen first."
"On the jade pendant of brother Chong'er, there is a word '文' engraved on it." Xiang Zheng replied.
"Yes, this is what makes Zhong'er unique. You can try it out. The three-year-old Xiang Zhongzhong is worthy of the word '文'. His thoughts are the same as those of a weak young man. Is there any difference at all?" Xiang Xu confidently extended an invitation to the gentlemen for on-site testing.
"Since it's a word for 'literary', let's ask Brother Zhan Hui to come up with a question and give it a try, okay?" Guan Ya extended the invitation to Mr. Zhan, who had been silent.
"Thanks to Brother Guan's misfortune, I will try a question: Today is the first time Xiang Zhong's brother Xiang Zheng hunted in the countryside. Although he caught nothing, he rescued an injured deer calf and returned with the injury himself. Later at the banquet In the middle, based on the song "Taiyin", all the teachers are planning to compete for who is stronger in literature and martial arts. Please write a poem about this matter, can it be done? "
Even though Zhan Hui was silent, he was keeping everything today in his heart. When he was asked to give a question, he would give a "summary of today's work" and throw the difficult problem to a three-year-old child. It can be said that he is a "ruthless person" character.
The doctor ordered Xiang Zhong to get a pen and lay it out. He took Xiang Zhong to the case, wetted the pen tip with ink, licked it smooth, then handed it to Zhong Er, held his little hand and said, "Write well."
Xiang Zhong knew that this was his "first show" in front of six gentlemen, and he could not lose face no matter what, whether it was for his father or himself.
He looked at Xiang Zheng, who was holding his bandaged right hand in his left hand. Just now, he was lifting him high and spinning him in circles. At this time, he was staring at his pen with big bright eyes, full of expectation, impatiently. I want to see what kind of amazing performance this smart brother will have.
"The fairy deer in the suburbs are astonishing in comparison."
A gentleman enjoys shooting, but all beasts hide in pain
There are mulberry trees in the suburbs, and there are ridges that shade them.
A gentleman is happy to be in charge, and he has leaves attached to his hooves
Extreme joy leads to trouble, flesh and blood hurt each other
Thinking about myself and others, leaving my mother heartbroken
There is no blame for each other’s injuries, and we will heal on our own during the holidays.
A heartbroken person has regrets, so his life will last forever.
Tingting curls up, Taiyinsirou
Don’t be scared, don’t be sad, don’t be sad
The words are chanted in harmony, and the purpose is to drink wine.
He made friends with bandits and asked for blessings. "
After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Zhong already had a plan in mind. He divided today's story about Brother Xiang Zheng into three major sections: "Suburban Hunting, Injury, and Banquet." He wrote three short poems with "YI" and "ANG" in them respectively. The rhyme of "OU" is based on the four-character, one-sentence format of "The Book of Songs", which can be written in one breath.
Then, he bowed deeply to all the gentlemen and said, "Student Xiangzhong has finished his work. Please pay tribute to Brother Zheng and ask Zhansheng to give you the title!"
To say that Zhong'er is smart is because he is smart. He did this because he was thinking in his heart: "Don't you want to test me? Okay, I'll kick the ball back to see if you have any real talent." Can you teach me your skills?"
Xiang Zheng glanced at Doctor Xiang, and after receiving his father's approval, he walked behind the case and began to read aloud to the gentlemen.
When the word "come to seek" was settled, several gentlemen showed admiration at the same time. They couldn't believe that such a poem could be written by a three-year-old kid, but it was indeed impossible to find out whether he had the ability to do so. The only evidence of cheating is to truly believe that the word "wen" belongs to him, and he deserves it!
"A good poem, a good poem! 'Poetry expresses aspirations, sings words, the sound lasts forever, and the rhythm harmonizes'. Chong'er's work summarizes today's events, and there is no mistake or omission. It is really the harmony between God and man, and the full meaning of benevolence and righteousness!" Guan Once Ya is "conquered" by the truth, even if his attitude changes 180 degrees, he still can't help praising Ya "one article after another".
