Nanzhi was away from home for a while. When he came back, many people came to see Nanzhi for medical treatment, and the yard was full.
Nanzhi was so tired that he couldn't even bother to write down the records, so he asked Er Shuanzi to help him write.
The Shen family is also very busy, preparing the flowing banquet. Shen Jiawen has not been admitted to the scholar examination, but he must do it to pass the examination. It will not work if he does not do it.
The clan, as well as the squires and landlords all expressed their secret wishes to do it. If they don’t have money, they can help.
For three days of running water feast, all relatives and relatives of the Shen family came, and everyone from the village came. It was a big project.
Moreover, waves of people came to the house, and the Shen family was the busiest place in the whole village.
When Shen Jiawen's health improved, he was taken around by his mentor, visiting other great Confucian scholars and some officials, so that Shen Jiawen, a disciple, could be exposed to everyone.
Showing off and showing off!
During this period, Zhang Yingying sent someone to deliver things, including pens, ink, paper and inkstones, a piece of silver, and a lot of letter paper.
There was a letter from Zhang Yingying. Zhang Yingying said that she would reply to her in the future to check the results of her calligraphy practice and that the prescription was quite useful. She also mocked Shen Jiawen in a weird way.
It is said that Shen Jiawen is really in the limelight recently, and he is a twenty-year-old Juren!
Amazing!
It was clearly a compliment, but it sounded sour and ironic when read.
Nanzhi:……
It seems that Sister Zhang doesn't generally hate Shen Jiawen.
Nanzhi practiced calligraphy for a few days before replying to Zhang Yingying. She told Sister Zhang about her daily life, seeing doctors, and going to the mountains to collect medicines when there were no patients. There were many herbs and good things in the mountains, but there were also dangers, such as poisonous snakes and insects. One bite might kill you.
He also talked about some interesting things, such as going up the mountain to catch pheasants, climbing trees to dig out bird eggs, and going into the water to catch fish and snails.
After writing a lot, Nanzhi put the letter paper into an envelope and wrote on the envelope, "Sister Zhang." '
In order to write this letter, Nanzhi learned the format of writing a letter.
She gave the envelope to Shen Jiawen and asked Shen Jiawen to bring it to Zhang Yingying.
Shen Jiawen did not expect that Xiangzhu and the talented Zhang Yingying would become pen pals. He took the envelope, which also contained a scent of incense and was printed with patterns, which was particularly delicate.
But when he saw the words written on it, Shen Jiawen suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if he saw a piece of silver falling into the manure pit.
Unspeakably uncomfortable.
It feels like a myocardial infarction.
I hope Zhang Yingying is okay after seeing her.
Shen Jiawen immediately put the envelope away and asked, "How do you communicate with her?"
Nanzhi said: "Sister Zhang asked me to do this and said she wanted to check the results of my calligraphy practice."
Shen Jiawen said, "She is kind to you."
Nanzhi thought for a moment and said, "Sister Zhang pities me and wants to encourage me to live a good life."
Nanzhi looked at Shen Jiawen: "She always felt that you abandoned me. Talk to me and encourage me."
Nanzhi felt right. Zhang Yingying just wanted to encourage Nanzhi. Too many women were abandoned and life was too sad.
Especially poor students, once they become prosperous, their faces will be particularly ugly.
These women range from ordinary women to daughters of merchants...
Their identities were no longer suitable for the prosperous students and they were abandoned, but most people despised the poor woman.
It’s useless even if you can’t hold your husband’s heart.
Who doesn’t like glory and wealth?
Who doesn’t love a beautiful woman and a lovely wife?
Who would not seize the power of the country?
It was so miserable, Zhang Yingying looked at it, but there was nothing she could do about it, and she felt very powerless.
Now that she has seen a separate one with a slightly better ending, Zhang Yingying hopes that she can live a good life and find a different path.
Men like Shen Jiawen should die!
Zhang Yingying has an attitude towards students, or to be precise, towards all students, 'You are rubbish'.
Even if there are really people with good knowledge and high moral character who block the books of sages and behave like animals, they are very few.
I don’t know how many students were ridiculed by Zhang Yingying, but everyone dared to be angry but dare not speak out. She is the granddaughter of a great scholar, and there are so many disciples of Zhang Daru.
Not to be offended.
Fortunately, Zhang Yingying has the reputation of being a talented woman. Even if her students are criticized, she can still gain respect for herself. After all, she is a talented woman and her grandfather is also a great scholar. It is normal for her to be inferior to her.
Shen Jiawen: "Did I abandon you?"
I'm not, I didn't, you're talking nonsense!
Shen Jiawen knew that Zhang Yingying didn't like him, so he avoided her. Now that he was accused of abandoning his wife, he didn't know what to say.
Nanzhi spread his hands and said helplessly: "That's what Sister Zhang thinks anyway."
Shen Jiawen couldn't argue, and just as he was about to leave, Nanzhi stopped him: "Wait a minute, I'll write another letter to Sister Chu."
In ancient times, it was possible to send letters, and there were inns to deliver letters, but we don’t know when it happened.
Shen Jiawen waited, "Hurry up a little bit, I have something to do."
Nanzhi nodded and wrote page after page, telling Sister Chu that she had gone home. She also talked about some things in the village and how delicious the running water mat was.
But the fruit is not as sweet as it was at Chu's house. After being away for some time, I miss my sister very much...
After finishing writing, Nanzhi wanted to write on the envelope, but Shen Jiawen immediately stopped him, "I'll write it."
Nanzhi handed the pen to Shen Jiawen. Shen Jiawen took the pen and finished writing in one breath. Nanzhi propped up his chin and looked at the words, "Brother Wen, your handwriting is really good."
It's really unfair. She traveled through time before Shen Jiawen, and they both used brushes at the beginning. Why is there such a big difference?
Oh, I'm so jealous!
In this way, Nanzhi and Zhang Yingying became pen pals. They communicated every few days, and Shen Jiawen, who was always walking around, became the messenger.
But Zhang Yingying still had eyes for Shen Jiawen, and although she seemed very polite and followed all the rules and etiquette, Shen Jiawen felt despised.
Zhang Daru watched from the side and apologized to Shen Jiawen, "I spoiled this child, ugh..."
A woman has lived a life of hardship and has not experienced hardship. She is a scholar after all. She cannot let her granddaughter be an illiterate old man.
But Zhang Yingying is talented in reading, has seen a lot, and has seen a lot. She has a bit of a temper and doesn't like the students.
Zhang Daru also noticed that his granddaughter was unhappy because she was a woman.
I also have special contempt for those students with bad conduct.
Even her own father, who was not used to seeing her, still complained. Zhang Yingying's father was so angry that he called her a naughty girl every day. He didn't know the rules because of what book he read.
Zhang Yingying sneered and retorted, making her father angry.
This granddaughter almost has the words "I hate all men" carved on her face.
Maybe she also hates her identity as a woman.
Why!
Naturally, Shen Jiawen would not argue with Zhang Yingying, but he still reminded him that not every man has a broad mind.
