"What a song 'Bamboo Stone'!"
Zhang Xiangshen murmured, and then praised the verses, "This poem seems simple and unpretentious at first, but when you read it carefully, it embodies Brother Fan's perseverance and perseverance!"
Fan Jin smiled lightly and said, "It's just a matter of catching a duck and putting it on the shelves. You two brothers don't need to flatter me too much."
Although he didn't think it was business bragging, he didn't really hypnotize himself. He regarded other people's hard work as his own genius.
Furthermore, copying poems was much more difficult in the Ming Dynasty than in the Tang and Song Dynasties. The popular masterpieces during the Ming and Qing Dynasties were far less numerous than those in the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Of course, the overall quality of Ming and Qing poetry is not good, but it is not far behind in terms of quantity either.
Among them, the Qing Dynasty contributed a large number of poems.
Especially a certain emperor of the Qing Dynasty who composed nearly 50,000 poems in his lifetime. Do you think he is joking?
Although most of these more than 50,000 poems are just nonsense, it is also a fact that they have greatly enriched my Qing poetry library.
After the Republic of China, there were even fewer excellent poems. Demons and ghosts who could not read a lot of Chinese characters wrote some poems that were shocking and weeping about ghosts and gods.
For example, there is 'environmental protection' such as "Old Feng is stationed in Xuzhou, and the big trees are green. Whoever cuts down my tree will have his head cut off";
The image is like "Traveling to Mount Tai": "Looking from a distance, Mount Tai is dark, thin at the top and thick at the bottom. It's like turning Mount Tai upside down, thin at the bottom but thick at the top";
Another example is vivid "Da Ming Lake", "Da Ming Lake, Ming Lake is big, there are lotus flowers in Daming Lake. There are toads on the lotus flowers, and they jump when they poke."
There are also "pious prayers for rain" such as, "Grandpa Jade Emperor's surname is also Zhang, why are you embarrassing me, Zhang Zongchang? If it doesn't rain within three days, first demolish the Dragon Emperor Temple, and then bombard your mother with cannons!"
In subsequent dynasties, there were fewer evil things and more people who were self-aware.
Not only did all the reckless heroes and literary youths who originally loved writing poems become too lazy to write poems, but serious people even stopped writing diaries.
As for those who are not serious, due to their limited real level, they can only "press Enter and write in separate lines", and then flatter each other in a small circle and feel complacent.
Mr. Zhou said, "Brother Fan is too modest!
Mr. Zhang nodded and added, approvingly, "Brother Zhou is right."
In the imperial examination, scholars were tested on the Four Books and Five Classics, but Fan Jin was ranked first by Zhou Xuedao in the boy examination. The two of them thought that they were far behind.
The examination mainly focuses on the Five Classics, and studies one of the Five Classics, twenty questions from the Five Classics, and chooses four questions from one of the Classics to start writing.
Fan Jin passed the seventh place in the Guangdong Provincial Examination, and even Zhou Xuedao praised his article as "The Best Text of Heaven and Earth". How could the two squires not admire him!
Otherwise, Mr. Zhang wouldn’t always talk about asking for advice.
Fan Jin chewed his teeth.
Zhang Jingzhai was in high spirits, "Brother Fan Shi, I have an unkind invitation, and I don't know whether to say it or not?"
Fan Jin pulled him and said enthusiastically: "Brother Jingzhai, you and I have known each other for so long, why should we be so reserved."
"Brother, I wonder if you can give this manuscript to me?" Squire Zhang was full of earnestness and stared at the rice paper with the word 'bamboo stone' written in large strokes on the agarwood table without blinking.
Fan Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "What do I think? Brother Jingzhai likes it, so just take it!"
Mr. Zhang was very happy when he got what he wanted and thanked him profusely.
...
The next day, early morning.
Fan Jin, who had just woken up and had just dressed and washed under the service of his slaves, immediately learned about the turmoil in the city after the spread of 'Bamboo Stone'.
The housekeeper bowed slightly and said happily: "Master, since your poems were spread, the scholars have been greatly amazed. They are all waiting outside the house, hoping to ask you for advice in person and listen to your teachings!"
I don’t know which bastard bastard had actually rumored that my master was not good at poetry and music. It was simply the most vicious slander!
No, with a little show of his skills, the romantic scholars in Hecheng were amazed.
"The power of 'Bamboo Stone' is so terrifying?" Fan Jin took a breath of cold air.
He didn't notice the admiration of the old housekeeper, or even if he noticed it, he didn't take it seriously.
Fan Jin waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you send someone to tell them, just say that I have caught a cold and it is inconvenient to see guests."
The old housekeeper was startled for a moment, then said 'yes' clearly.
My master is a scholar, and the great people who gather outside to see him are scholars, and some of them are not even boys.
He said he came here to ask for advice, but in reality he was just looking for an opportunity to cling to his master!
No wonder the master is impatient.
Fan Jin had no idea that the old housekeeper had filled up his mind with so many things in an instant.
Now that we have established the character of "Today's articles are all important, why bother talking about the Han and Tang Dynasties", then it will naturally be established firmly!
Nowadays, Zhou Xuedao is his biggest supporter. Of course, he must be a 'good student' that the teacher likes, and always keep in step with the teacher.
Since I said I occasionally feel cold, of course it is not inconvenient for visitors to go out today.
If there are no visitors, I will study hard.
Although Fan Jin inherited his original talent and learning, in the original work, during the three years when Fan Jin was a filial piety to his mother, he did not listen to anything outside the world and only read books by sages.
The article's enthusiasm is definitely more profound than that of Fan Jin at this time.
Fan Jin sat on the wicker chair under the rose stand, and the hot tea on the stone table next to him was steaming.
Not long after, a servant came to report that Father Hu had come straight to this place with his two uncles.
Fan Jin frowned subconsciously.
Father Hu is nothing.
The key is that those two cheap uncles are not fuel-efficient lamps!
In my memory, every time I went to Yue's family for help, my two uncles, who had long since separated, guarded him as much as they guarded against thieves.
That’s all!
These two people also spared no effort to spread rumors about Fan Jin and Hu Yingying, and often slandered Fan Jin and his wife.
Later, the dispute became so tense that Hu Yingying had no face to return to her parents' home for more than ten years.
Compared with Father Hu's "bad-mouthed but good-hearted" character, Fan Jin could hardly find any good qualities in those two cheap uncles.
And, if he remembered correctly.
Whether it was the scholar who was selected first, or the scholar who was selected immediately after, neither of them showed up.
Anyway, when he was selected as a scholar, Father Hu brought a pair of large intestines over, although most of them went to his five internal organs temple. Later, when he won the examination, he even brought the best pork belly for four to five thousand dollars.
This is naturally not worth mentioning compared to the things others fawn over, but for Mr. Hu, it is already a very generous gift!
The two uncles didn't even show their faces, and they couldn't even do superficial things.
Thinking of this, Fan Jin couldn't help but spit, and secretly cursed: "Two unworthy things!"
That is to say, since he won the election, he has been socializing too much and can't think of it. Otherwise, given his status and status, if he casually reveals it, the business of these two brothers will be ruined!
Now that he has come to plead guilty, he wants to see what tricks he can pull off.
