Mrs. Xiang announced the good news that Xiang Zhong had been waiting for for a long time. Her face was filled with anticipation. She believed that her son would soon be able to see a "confidant" who was as intelligent as him. Now that he is a talented person, this will have a major impact on his life. He should be able to get better inspiration and education than he can get from her.
Xiang Zhong lowered his hands to hold Qi Tun's hands and nodded vigorously, with a look of excitement and anticipation on his face.
"Great! I finally have to wait until the day I meet the great man."
Ji Yuke was much more stable than "Little Tail". He gently unfolded a scroll of text in the second brocade box and saw the fonts on it. It was really strange, unheard of, and unseen. The only part that he could read was the large seal script, but he couldn't read the other half of the small seal script, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script. So, he asked Xiang Zhong: "What's the matter? I I don’t even know you!”
The part of the text he was pointing to happened to be the "Seal Script Formula" that Xiang Zhong had written silently in order to fear that he would not be able to read it accurately:
"Zhath Thumb means he is the king."
Mu Zhan is the eaves
Zero head inflammation is positive
It's true that it's easy
Chu Shuxu Yizu
Abandoning education Yun Feiyun
Double Insect plus Tripod Insect
"Three deer come from dust"
Xiang Zhong was a little worried, how should he explain this formula to him?
Xiang Zhong looked at his other treasure, the bag filled with small bamboo slices, so he poured out all the small bamboo slices in the bag, then divided them into two parts, and placed one part on the big seal font. For each part, one word is separated from each other, and each character is framed according to its glyph shape, which is very personal and like a picture.
Then, he used another part of the calculation to mark the other half of the small seal characters in a neatly spaced frame.
From such a comparison, it is obvious that the large seal script is tall, short, fat and thin, and each one is different; while the small seal script is neat and tidy, with every character being the same height and size, neat and beautiful.
"It turns out that you are improving these calligraphy to make them more beautiful and neat!" Ji Yu understood the comparison of font size and structure.
As for the meaning of this "mantra", Xiang Zhong first gathered up these small pieces of bamboo and used them to calculate the "nine-nine multiplication formula". He knew that this mother had already taught Ji Yu;
Then, he copied the above "Character Recognition Tips" and so on. He wrote several words in a row with similar combinations. Then he closed his eyes and shook his head as if he was reciting the formula. . Then he pointed to the groups of characters he had taken out, then pointed to "Nine-nine Tables", then pointed to the mouth, and finally pointed to the head.
After this series of demonstrations, Ji Yu finally figured it out. It turned out to be the formula for how to read characters. He nodded vigorously and was filled with admiration!
In order to explain clearly how the six types of fonts gradually evolved, Xiang Zhong went to the incense burner in front of the hall. Just like he did in Xiang Mansion the day before yesterday, he took out some incense ash from a wooden tray, then smoothed the ash surface with his palm, and then wrote each one with his index finger. Five versions of the font’s “home” font:
The character "家" in large seal script means that the house is made up of four straight lines. It is simply a realistic side profile of a spire house, and then the five strokes carefully draw out the shape of a "pig" with no part missing. This They all knew each other;
Then there is the "home" of Xiaozhuan. This time the house is no longer straight, but has become two curves with a small pointed end on top. The straight line "pig" inside has also become "thin". The "flesh-thin leg-shaped" appearance is also not lacking in the head, limbs and category symbols;
Then there is the word "home" in regular script. This time, only the roof is left in the house. The walls on both sides are not that long. Brother Pig below has beautiful legs. The stroke of "捺" is very chic. It also balances and stabilizes the trend of all diagonally upward strokes on the left;
The "家" in running script at the back is not much different from the regular script. The strokes of the font are connected, and the chubby feeling of "Brother Pig" in the lean body is back;
Finally, there is the word "home" in cursive script, which is like a stream of cigarettes dancing in the air. One stroke penetrates through the air and rotates left and right. It becomes a simple painting again. However, compared with the original seal script, this one is Everywhere is full of "tenderness", instead of the hard feeling of "knife, axe, chisel".
These six words were written together in order. Not only did Ji Yu understand it, but also "Little Tail" understood the "Pig Brother" in the room. He clapped his hands and laughed happily: "Cong'er is so cool! There are so many Just a big pig!"
She laughed so hard that her teeth leaked out of the word "豕". When she said it, she almost whistled. The sound effect was extraordinary and scared her. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands. This time she laughed so hard Even worse, she was laughing that she almost made a fool of herself just now. Fortunately, she stopped her voice quickly and no one should have noticed.
Mrs. Xiang also approached the ash tray, and carefully used her fingers to follow the handwriting traced by Xiang Zhong's little hand, and re-marked them one by one. She found it quite interesting and thought that she should prepare more in the study in the future. Learning tools such as incense trays and sand trays can give Cong more room to develop, and the two students can also learn new things by the way. It is really interesting.
After reporting his learning results to Xiangfu, Mrs. Xiang tidied up his clothes very thoughtfully, patted the incense ashes on him, and then left like she would an adult son. He went to the bookcase next to him, dug out a writing cabinet, and took out the "invitation letter" sent to Mr. Shang Wu, a cylinder with a jade pendant and rope tied with the merchant's family logo, and opened the upper half of the cylinder cover. , pulled out a very thin series of bamboo scrolls and handed it solemnly to his hands.
I opened it again and saw, from right to left, a neatly formatted "invitation letter" in a very powerful and sturdy large seal font, arranged vertically. The text is as follows:
"Hey, the deer roars, eating the apples in the wild. I have a guest, who plays the harp and the sheng. Give me a peach, and give me a plum in return. The rank is high in the quiet Nanshan Mountain, and my companionship is already here. I hope you will come as expected. Between the evening moon——Shang You came to the house respectfully on his father's orders."
This time Mr. Shang was correcting the previous poem that Ji Yu had modified: "Crowing chickens, a forest of eating vegetables. I have guests, let's dance and sing." He returned to Zhengyuan's original intention. It seems that his memory is also quite good.
"Between the sunset and the moon, okay! It will be here soon. I'm looking forward to it!"
Xiang Zhong was a little excited. The "heavyweight" he had been looking forward to for so long was finally destined to meet him.
"When I go out to meet dignitaries, I'm going to make a few Xinze ceremonial robes for you guys. What about you guys? Tell me what colors you like?"
Madam Xiang is preparing to sew a new dress with her own hands. It seems that the mother-in-law takes this upcoming trip very seriously.
