When Lin Shaowen and Lou Xiao'e returned home, it was completely dark.
As soon as they walked to the door, they saw Silly Zhu waiting there with a straight face.
"Hey, you guys have no sense of time."
"Sorry, sorry." Lin Shaowen apologized hastily.
"Lou Xiao'e is still a pregnant woman and doesn't eat on time. Lin Shaowen, you can really do it."
After Silhu said a word, he went straight to the kitchen and started cooking.
In less than twenty minutes, the food was on the table.
Even though he was angry, he had a very strong work ethic.
"Master He, have a drink?" Lin Shaowen shook the bottle.
Gulu!
Silly Zhu swallowed his saliva.
This bottle of wine was taken from Xu Damao last time, a ten-year-old Fenjiu wine.
"No, how can there be..."
"Aren't we friends?" Lin Shaowen smiled.
"Yeah, that's right." Silly Zhu came to the table.
Lou Xiao'e was a little dumbfounded. She was afraid that Shazhu would be sold by Lin Shaowen one day.
Not a moment.
"Lin Shaowen, Jia and Zhang made a fuss in the yard again today." Silly Zhu said with a blushing face, "Poor Sister Qin, she just gave birth to a baby, and she has to do laundry and cook before finishing her confinement..."
"What? Jia Zhang wants Qin Peiru to do laundry and cook?"
Lou Xiao'e was immediately stunned.
It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and even if Lin Shaowen went to dry her clothes, he wouldn't let her, for fear that she would freeze. What's more, Qin Peiru hasn't even given birth yet, and Jia Zhang is nothing.
"Yes." Silly Zhu sighed, very sad, "Today, in order to name the child, Jia Zhang and Qin Peiru had a quarrel in the yard again..."
"What's the name? Isn't it Sophora japonica?" Lin Shaowen laughed.
He deeply sympathized with Qin Peiru's experience, but he really couldn't do much to help.
"Sophora japonica?"
Silly Zhu muttered, and his eyes lit up, "Yes, Jia Huaihua, that's a good name."
"Well."
Lin Shaowen realized that he had made a mistake, so he hurriedly picked up his wine glass and touched it with Shazhu.
He didn't know who named Jia Huaihua.
"Lin Shaowen, is there anything special about the name Sophora japonica?" Silly Zhu came over and asked.
"What's the significance of this? It's nothing more than 'the locust trees are blooming with viburnum flowers in May, and the fragrance intoxicates thousands of families.'" Lin Shaowen said casually.
"I know this, Su Shi's "Sophora Flowers"." Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.
"Miss Lou, can you do it? Can Feihua Ling do it?" Lin Shaowen suddenly became interested.
He considers himself not a man of letters, but in his previous life he was a graduate majoring in Chinese linguistics, and he was a bad player in the "Feihua Ling" or something like that.
"Who can't? Mr. Lin, I'll give you a chance to come first..." Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.
"A night of rain in the mountains reveals hundreds of springs under the trees."
"The sound of the spring swallows the dangerous stone, and the sun is cold and green."
"The wind in the pines unwinds the belt, and the moonlight in the mountains plays the harp."
"..."
Lin Shaowen and Lou Xiao'e's words each made Sha Zhu dumbfounded.
Is this the world of cultural people? It's terrible.
Of course, Lin Shaowen did not ignore him and would have a drink with him from time to time.
In the end, when the two of them had spoken more than a hundred sentences, Shazhu finally couldn't bear to say goodbye. Although it was interesting, he couldn't understand it... He couldn't understand a single sentence. He only remembered Lin Shaowen's first sentence.
Silly Zhu came out of the west wing courtyard and breathed a long sigh of relief.
When we walked to the backyard, Yan Bugui, as the cultural representative of the courtyard house, naturally chose the name. Jia Zhang sat under the eaves and said nothing, while Jia Dongxu had an indifferent attitude. Only Qin Peiru's eyes were full of expectation.
"Yan Laoxi, are you cheating on melon seeds again?" Silly Zhu sneered.
Yanbu Guike never does business at a loss, so if he is asked to take action, he will give him something instead of money.
There’s not too much chicken, duck, and fish, and there’s not too little melon seeds and peanuts.
"What are you talking about?" Yan Bugui said with a serious face, "naming is a matter for educated people. If you don't understand, just go away."
"What's so difficult about naming her?" Silly Zhu said proudly, "I think Sister Qin's girl might as well be called 'Sophora Flower'."
"Sophora flower? Jia Huaihua?"
The people who were watching the fun were suddenly shocked and looked at Silly Zhu up and down. How could this fool even give him a name?
"Okay, Silly Zhu, you should look at each other with admiration after three days of separation." Yan Bugui mocked, "Since you said it's called 'Sophora Flower', then tell me, what's the significance of this name..."
"What's so difficult about this?" Silly Zhu said with a master's demeanor, "The name is taken from Su Shi's poem 'The pagoda trees bloom with flowers in May, and their fragrance intoxicates thousands of families.'"
The whole courtyard fell silent instantly.
Yan Bugui took off his glasses and wiped them hard before looking at Shazhu carefully.
"Weren't you possessed by Lao Jia?" Xu Damao said in panic.
"Fuck you, Xu Damao, you were just taken over by Lao Jia." Silly Zhu said angrily.
"No problem, this is Silly Pillar."
Xu Damao felt slightly relieved when he heard the familiar scolding.
"Teacher Yan, look at this name..."
Qin Peiru looked at Yan Bugui, hoping that he would pick another one so that she could choose.
"Okay, let's call the loser a sophora flower." Jia Zhang stopped Qin Peiru. Since she could have sex for free, she didn't want to give Yan Bugui another handful of melon seeds.
"This name is well chosen." Yan Bugui said a little disappointed, "The name has its origin, and it is suitable for a female doll."
Qin Peiru couldn't help but sigh when she saw Jia Zhang's appearance, and whispered twice, "Sophora flower, Jia Huaihua..."
Silly Zhu walked back into the house with a figure-footed step in front of everyone's surprised gazes.
"He actually tricked him." Xu Damao gritted his teeth.
"This name is definitely not given by Shazhu. I have seen this kid since I was a child. How would he know Su Shi? I've eaten up all the hoe." Yan Bugui affirmed.
"Is it possible..." Xu Damao looked towards the west wing courtyard.
"Definitely." Yan Bugui clapped his hands, "Silly boy must have heard something from Lin Shaowen before he came out to show off. In the whole yard, Lin Shaowen is the only one who is somewhat good..."
"Teacher Yan, if I remember correctly, you just graduated from high school, right?" Xu Damao started to mischief, "At your level, how dare you compare with Lin Shaowen? He is a serious college student."
"Yes, Lin Shaowen is the most educated in the courtyard."
"Yes, looking at the entire Nanluogu Alley, this guy is the only one who has graduated from college."
"Should we go to Lin Shaowen if we have something to do in the future?"
…
The residents of the courtyard house were very realistic and immediately switched sides.
Yan Bugui's face suddenly darkened. Unlike Liu Haizhong, he was not an official fan, but he claimed to be a "cultural man", and now he was actually outclassed by Lin Shaowen.
That kid has a dark heart and is not worthy of the term "educated man".
"snort."
Yan Bugui snorted coldly, turned around and went home.
When Xu Damao saw this, he couldn't help but gloat a little, thinking that this time it would be enough for Lin Shaowen to drink. Yan Bugui was not easy to get along with.
late at night.
Bang!
The sound of breaking glass resounded throughout the courtyard.
"Which bastard who gave birth to a son without an asshole smashed my glass..."
Xu Damao's roar spread throughout the courtyard.
Yan Bugui, who was so angry that his liver ached, had a sneer on his face. He couldn't deal with Lin Shaowen, so he couldn't deal with you, Xu Damao?
He has three sons.
