Shen Rui is a young man and has always been sensible. Chen Jue has been stared at by the third master these days and has endless homework done every day. The two of them come together and want to invite three or five friends at home to quickly find a day. Where can Xu's family do it? Stop it?
Xu nodded and said, "It's been cold these days, and I can freeze the ice. Brother Rui, why did Brother Jue think of ice sporting? It's okay if I skate, you can't compare to Taizhi and the second brother of the Yang family..."
Shen Rui smiled and looked at Chen Jue.
Chen Jue smiled "hehe" and said, "I haven't seen him since I was a child, so it sounds so funny. When I returned to Beijing this time, I saw naughty boys playing on the ice when I passed by the outskirts of Beijing."
Xu looked at their brothers and said, "I need to ask someone to make ice skates for you, and also make thick cotton clothes. I will fall hard when I start playing on the ice..." Speaking of this, I looked at Chen Jue and couldn't help but hesitate. .
Shen Rui's thoughts moved and understood Xu's concerns.
Playing on the ice is very easy to fall, and falling flesh only hurts. If you hurt your bones or something, you will delay the trial of Shen Jue Boy.
Shen Rui said: "It's fine to have ice skates. You can level the garden with a total of 6 or 700% of the place. It's not easy to skate... My child had read a kind of curling game in a miscellaneous book. Or we would invite someone to try playing that…”
Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said curiously: "Curling? I haven't heard anyone say it. I think it's been lost among the people."
Shen Rui cannot say that this is an ice and snow competition event in later generations. It originated from a foreign country thousands of miles away, so it is assumed that it was seen in miscellaneous books.
Although Shen Rui knew the rules of curling almost the same, the current conditions are not enough, and there is no need to be so complicated. He introduced it in a few words.
"Since you need to be divided into groups, you have to decide the outcome of the game." Chen Jue is young and competitive, and he is ready to look: "You can find some good things to reward at that time."
Xu's sounds like a throwing game, does not require a physical collision, and is not easily injured, so he nodded and shouted.
Although Shen Rui's introduction has simplified the rules and game tools for curling, the two game props, curling and ice brush, cannot be simplified. Shen Rui asked for paper and pen and pen to make the curling and ice brush production institute The material and general specifications need to be written.
Xu looked at it and said, "This is what you guys do, they use big ones. If you change to a small pot, you can also play the role of a daughter in the boudoir."
Chen Jue nodded and agreed, "It can be done together. My aunt can go out to loosen her muscles and bones even if she has nothing to do."
Xu laughed and said, "At my age, if I go to play, I will be laughed at as if I am disrespectful. This is prepared for Sister Yu. The ice rink is ready, and when you brothers have played, you will also let Yu go. Sister, that girl invites a few sisters in the boudoir to play with you."
In early September, Mao Chi left Beijing and returned home. Before he left, He Xueshi was still a major mediator. The two families of Chen and Mao had officially passed their marriage letters and decided to have a marriage between Sister Yu and Mao Chi.
Until before the wedding, Sister Yu had to prepare for marriage at home.
Xu thought she was a child who knew her well, but she was too reserved and sensitive, and she was less generous.
Although the Mao family is from a craftsman, it is now the top scholar.
Mao Chi's father is not at a high level now, but he often goes into the ban and is valued by the emperor. He will definitely rise in the future. Sister Yu used to be the eldest daughter-in-law, so of course she could not be petty.
Xu wanted Sister Yu to show up for more socializing, and she was relieved of her restraint.
Since you want to treat me, you must prepare a post first. You can't just pick someone up for a while, as that would be really disrespectful.
Shen Rui and Chen Jue discussed it for a while and then prepared a list.
He Taizhi and Yang Zhongyan's two cousins cannot be lost. Chen Quan went directly to Nanjing to participate in the hospital examination next spring. He is still in Beijing, so he will be added.
Qiao Yongde and Qiao Yongshan's cousins were not invited, and Qiao could not tell me because they were filial piety.
Yang Shen is about the same age and is Shen Rui's future brother-in-law, so he must be included. He wanted to go out to study in Beijing before, but in the end he could get his wish. He just walked not far, but only arrived at Daming Mansion and came back before the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's right.
In addition to the clan's relatives and in-laws, Chen Jue did not go out to study when he was in the capital and did not meet friends outside. However, Shen Rui had several friends outside.
There are too many people, and there are too few people, and there are too few people, and there are deserted.
Shen Rui divided the importance in his heart and said, "There are four people above, plus you and my brothers. I also made two new friends, both of whom are at the same age. They also came to their home in June, so this is eight. Personally, Brother Xiaodong has returned to his hometown, but Brother Xiaolin is here, so I will add another Brother Xiaolin..."
Chen Jue, the other person, had no objection, and heard the mention of Brother Xiaolin, hesitated: "The sixth clan sister-in-law is determined to be successful. Let's call Brother Xiaolin to play, but the sixth clan sister-in-law will not let anyone go."
Although Shen Rui knew that several cabinet masters were excluded from the court in the early years of Zhengde, and the Shangshu Mansion had tacitly alienated the relationship between Chen Li, this did not mean that he was ruthless to Chen Li.
Shen Rui remembered the three years of protection and teaching in his heart.
If Chen Li had not been both Xie Qian's disciple and his son-in-law, he was really a hard-core Xie Party and could not get rid of the relationship, Shen Rui would have wanted to persuade him to turn against him.
As early as June, Shen Rui thought of Chen Lin. But he didn't know Shou Ge's temper at that time. Chen Lin was young and was not as sensible as Taizhi, so he didn't ask him to come.
Ordinary boys like to play with older brothers, and Shou Ge also has this tendency; however, he is also curious about children of the same age or similar observation and is slightly tolerant.
Xie Qianbian was just a veteran of the three dynasties and a virtuous prime minister. When the old and new changes, even if he is excluded from his hometown, he will be considered retirement. Anyway, he is over 60 years old.
Chen Li is in his prime, and it would be a pity if he was dragged down by his father-in-law and his career was cut off from then on.
Shou Ge's temperament is as happy and angry as he wants. If he has a friendship with Chen Lin, even if he has been dismissed from Chen Li, he will not be completely disgusted, and there will always be a day of recovery.
Chen Jue didn't expect that Shen Rui was planning for three or five years later. He thought that he would be happy with the families of all the houses in the capital in the first half of last year. However, after the title of his heir was decided, he would be with Shen Li and Shen Machinery. Gradually faded, only the fifth brother Chen Ying left.
It’s not that Chen Cang and the Xu couple were wary of their descendants and nephews getting close to their original clans, but rather that they were in a state of scrutiny and seemed to avoid suspicion and no longer had any contact with the previous ones.
Chen Jue was young and could not have thought that the current situation of the government would rise, so he just regarded it as a taboo.
It is not advisable to be too close to the family members of the family, otherwise it is considered the son of the family or the son of the parents of the family?
As for Chen Li, although he was not a relative of Shen Rui's family, he was both a father and a brother before, so he took care of Shen Rui. Now he took a step back and no longer interfered in Shen Rui's affairs. He also respected Chen Cang and his wife.
In this way, is it inappropriate for Shen Rui to invite Brother Kobayashi?
Chen Jue thought about it and advised: "Brother Xiaolin asked, forget it, come if you can, don't force it if you can. It's not just a matter of delaying his study, but it's just a matter of playing outside and bumping into it. It’s not easy to explain to my brothers and sisters-in-law of the six clans.”
When Shen Rui heard this, he thought of Xie's behavior and nodded, "We are talking about it lively, so I can't say that there will be no one for my sister-in-law to come at all. Forget it, I'll hand over a post and let it go."
Although Xu arranged manpower and did not need the two of them to make the ice rink, Chen Jue also walked around there every time. The post had already spread out and was waiting to treat him now.
When Shen Ruisui finished the exam, Xu also asked someone to make "curling" and "icing brushes" according to the drawings.
Although it is not as good as the professional curling in later generations, it looks quite good.
Curling is divided into two sets, one with a large set of curling, each with nearly thirty kilograms; the other with a small set of curling is only eight kilograms, each with sixteen.
There are two sets of ice brushes, each set of six, made of horse hair and size. When playing, four ice brushes are used and the other two are reserved.
When he made things, not only Chen Jue was eager to try, but even the third master was intrigued. Although he was in poor health over the years, he was proficient in all kinds of elegant plays. Now he is very curious when he encounters new games.
However, the ice rink has just frozen and has not been polished yet, so it is not easy to throw the curling.
Even so, the third master also noticed the fun of the game and asked Shen Rui: "Which book did Brother Rui read it? This game is too late. It is now the twelfth lunar month. If it is the beginning of the winter month, I will remember it. , it is impossible to be popular in the capital now."
Shen Rui was thinking and said, "Is it a miscellaneous book I saw in the old book shop in Kaifeng back then? It seems to be called "Bianjing Travels" or "Bianjing Notes". I can't remember it clearly..."
In the 11th year of Hongzhi, Shen Rui followed Wang Shouren and walked north with a Zen master Ku, and the elders here also knew about it.
After hearing what Shen Rui said, the third master knew that he saw it that time.
Kaifeng Prefecture was once Song Jing, and it is common to see similar notes and novels in the local area.
Although the third master read a lot of books, he could not say that he could know the world. After listening to Shen Rui's words, he knew that he was reading it occasionally. He just felt a pity: "I haven't seen this book in the capital, which is a pity, is there any The notes of the Young World Love were obliterated..."
Two days later, after the annual exam results, Shen Rui undoubtedly got a "first class".
The annual exam is the same as the scientific exam. There are three articles in total, two articles in the four books and one article in the scriptures. The ones that are very smooth are first-class, generally the second-class, and the ones that are barely smooth are third-class, and the flaws are less flawed The ones are fourth-class, the ones with serious flaws are fifth-class, and the ones with no shit are sixth-class.
If you are a student in the rank of the rank of the third grade, at the worst, you will have to pass the third grade. If you are a student in the rank of the fourth grade, you will be disqualified from the rank of the fifth grade. If you are a student in the rank of the sixth grade, you will be in danger of fame and honor.
The students admitted to Shuntian Prefecture School are the best in the country. They rarely have sixth grades in annual subject examinations, and fifth grades are rare. If the students are serious and the fourth grade is already extremely poor. In comparison, the results are already very poor. , 30% of the number of people who pass the first class exam every year account for 30% to 40%.
Although Shen Rui's "first-class" doesn't mean to destroy everyone, it's not that eye-catching.
However, Shen Rui was satisfied and had a day off to prepare to host guests at home the next day...
