Chapter 107 of the E-Zi Volume: Brainstorming Interpretation, Different People Have Different Views
Hearing Shen Yixiu's explanation, the girls all breathed a sigh of relief.
I don’t know why, but everyone actually pays so much attention to Feng Ziying’s ability to get up on time and whether he has changed his original habits. Maybe they are afraid that the elder brother Feng in their minds will become a different person after marriage.
Especially people like Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai who are worried about this, and are even more worried that the happy and angry woman in front of them will have too much influence on Feng Ziying, and even change Feng Ziying a lot.
Although they don't believe that Feng Ziying is so easily influenced, who can say clearly about this kind of thing?
In history, so many heroes eventually fell under the pomegranate skirt. It is difficult to comment on the outcome, but it will definitely not be good news for them.
It would be really shocking if this woman changed the morning exercise habit that Uncle Feng had insisted on for so many years in less than a month.
Fortunately, this is not the case. Everyone knows that Feng Ziying is not good at drinking. If a close friend from the past comes to visit, it is indeed difficult to refuse. It is normal to get drunk too much.
"Are you Brother Feng's classmate at Qingtan Academy?" Tan Chun was particularly interested in Qingtan Academy and asked curiously.
Brother Huan is now studying at Qingtan Academy. This time he came back and felt that he has changed a lot. His demeanor is more calm. Of course, he is also more arrogant in the house. In addition to being a little polite to his sister, he is a little more polite when he sees him. When meeting the old man, his wife, and the ancestors, they were all even more silent and indifferent.
"Yes, there are seven or eight people here. They are all his classmates at Qingtan Academy, and they are all Jinshi in the same subject. They have always had a close relationship with Ziying." Shen Yixiu said with pride, " Now, like Ziying, they are about to expire their three-year term of observing the government, and they are faced with where to go after the expiration, so they had a banquet in the back garden yesterday to commemorate it."
The special relationship between students in the same department makes this group the most closely connected, especially if they are classmates. When combined, it becomes even more extraordinary.
These people will be her husband's powerful assistants in the court in the future. Even Shen Yixiu is very clear about this, so she had no complaints about her husband being drunk yesterday. In such a situation, everyone can only risk their lives to accompany the gentleman. .
Especially being able to choose to live in his own home, in a sense, the husband acts as the master, and this meaning is also unusual.
Shen Yixiu's words also made all the girls sigh with emotion. In the future, these people will enter the imperial court, maybe in the middle of the court, or maybe in other places, but no matter what, they are the backbone of the Zhou Dynasty.
Although the girls here are young, they all come from official families, and they are familiar with it. They also have a rough idea of how special the relationship formed based on classmates and the same subject is.
"I don't know what kind of banquet will be like for Brother Feng and the others to commemorate it? Or will they just follow orders and compose lyrics like we do together?"
Shi Xiangyun herself has a bit of masculine pride and is also very curious about the outside world. She doesn't know what it would be like to think that these men, all Jinshi, would walk in the snow together to admire the plum blossoms and drink in commemoration.
Shen Yixiu laughed. She also had a very good impression of this girl with a strong martial spirit, "Well, maybe she can also give orders, but she just writes poems and poems based on the beautiful scenery of the snow..."
"Then Brother Feng also wants to recite poems and compose poems?" Tan Chun couldn't help but ask, and the other girls all laughed.
Feng Ziying didn't like poetry, and would get headaches when invited to poetry and cultural gatherings. Either because of illness or as an excuse to have an appointment, or in short, she refused to participate. This became a "good story" in the circles of scholars in the capital city.
Shen Yixiu also laughed, "You, Brother Feng, were really different yesterday. It is said that you were forced by some classmates to compose a poem as a last resort..."
"Oh?" This suddenly surprised several girls. Daiyu was a little better. She knew that Brother Feng could compose poems, but they were basically fragments of sentences. She had never heard of him doing one. The other women had simply never heard the entire poem.
Whether Baochai or Tanchun, although they have admired Feng Ziying for a long time, it is impossible to say that they do not have any regrets about Feng Ziying's lack of poetic talent.
The most dazzling characteristic of a scholar in this era is poetry and poetry. Even if you are the one who calls the shots in the court, if you are not proficient in poetry, you will easily be regarded as a vulgar person. Of course, this name is mostly synonymous with military commanders, because from then on I have never heard of any Jinshi who could pass through Qiuwei and Chunwei but could not understand poetry. Feng Ziying undoubtedly became this exception.
Although Feng Ziying had some performances on various occasions, it felt like they were all piecemeal, and composing poetry on the spot like this is the touchstone that best tests whether a person has poetry or literary talent.
Lin Daiyu couldn't help it at first, "Brother Feng has a new work? Sister, can you let us have a sneak peek?"
Several girls looked at Shen Yixiu with great expectation, and Shen Yixiu also happily agreed, "Ziying was still very quick-witted under the pressure of her classmates. This forced him to write a poem, "Bu Suanzi· "Yong Mei", I dare not say that it is unique among the poems about praising plum blossoms, but it is definitely outstanding."
Shen Yixiu dared to say this, which shocked the hearts of several girls. Could it be that Brother Feng's usual behavior was to hide his capabilities and bide his time?
At this time, even the girls Xiangyun, Yingchun and Xichun suddenly became interested and wanted to hear the quality of this song "Bu Suanzi·Yong Mei·".
"The wind and rain send spring back, and the flying snow welcomes spring. The cliffs are already covered with hundreds of feet of ice, but there are still beautiful flowers and branches. She doesn't fight for spring, she only reports that spring has come. When the mountain flowers are in full bloom, she laughs in the bushes."
After reading this poem, the entire room was immediately filled with silence. Especially when he read the sentence "Flying snow welcomes the spring", Yingchun immediately felt the strange looks from the sisters next to him.
Although she knew that this was just a commonly used expression in poetry, the fact that her name was implicit in it still made her heart tremble. Could this be fate?
In this poem, there are four sentences with the word spring in it, which shows Feng Ziying's appreciation and praise for spring, which seems to imply the meaning of the four springs in Jia's family.
Naturally, Shen Yixiu didn't quite understand the mystery here, but for Daiyu, Baochai and Xiangyun, it was somewhat meaningful. The name of this poem was to praise plum blossoms, but the implication was that plum blossoms expressed their love for spring. Looking forward to it, Daiyu, Baochai and Xiangyun can't help but think about it.
As for Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun, they were even more imaginative. None of them expected that Feng Ziying would write such a poem. The hidden meanings of the four spring characters corresponded to the four springs in Jia's family.
Does the phrase "Wind and rain send spring home" allude to the return of relatives in Yuanchun?
Doesn’t the flying snow to welcome the spring refer to myself? We greet the spring and bow our heads in silence.
Tan Chun's beautiful eyes are bright, her gaze is scorching, and she is pretty and does not compete with her. Is this Brother Feng referring to his aloof and noble character, and does not bother to argue with others?
Xichun's cheeks turned red and she thought thoughtfully. She only reported the coming of spring. She was of a calm nature and had always believed in Buddhist karma. Could it be that this "rewarding of the coming of spring" was referring to herself?
What does the cliff with hundreds of feet of ice refer to? Who does the beautiful flower branch refer to? My heart is trembling in the spring. Could it be that Brother Feng is hinting that he must remain optimistic even if he faces a dangerous fate?
Shi Xiangyun thought, could it be that Brother Feng also knew that his marriage with the Zhen family had some twists and turns, so if he faced it calmly, he would have a better marriage?
When the mountain flowers were in full bloom, she smiled in the bushes. Was this a hint that she had to wait patiently? Baochai, Tanchun, and Xichun thought so, and all kinds of thoughts came to them at once, making it difficult to calm down.
In fact, this poem was written so appropriately for the occasion. The hidden meanings in the poem's sentences are too rich, and the objects it alludes to are easy to trigger people's emotions. It's no wonder that they are all thinking about it.
Shen Yixiu didn't expect that just by reading out this poem, the entire hall became silent. Almost everyone seemed to be savoring the hidden meaning, and their thoughtful expression was even more intriguing. .
"Sisters, what do you think of Ziying's poem?" Shen Yixiu looked at everyone with eager eyes and asked with a smile.
Lin Daiyu nodded slightly, with a face full of relief, "Brother Feng doesn't like poetry. It's not that his level is not high, but that he feels that he has more important things to focus on. The younger sister is thinking that as soon as this poem comes out, Then who in the capital city dares to say that Brother Feng is incompetent in poetry, then he is bringing humiliation upon himself."
Daiyu opened her mouth, and the other women also came to their senses and agreed. However, the feelings in their hearts cannot be explained to outsiders. They can only reflect on it carefully after they go back.
While the girls were admiring, they saw Yun Shang coming in and announcing, "Grandma, after the uncle got up, he went to the study over there first. He said there were some urgent matters that needed to be dealt with there. He asked grandma to leave some girls for tea. He took care of the things over there. Come over after you're done with it, and I'll invite you ladies to have dinner at the house at noon."
"Oh? My husband has passed by? Didn't you say anything urgent?" Shen Yixiu couldn't help but asked with concern.
"Baoxiang didn't say anything. He only said that he was a guest from outside the house and was brought to the study room." Yun Shang whispered.
The outer study room is generally used to receive foreign guests, that is, mostly business guests, while the inner study room is used to receive close relatives and friends.
"Yes, I understand." Shen Yixiu smiled, "Then please sisters, please stay a little longer. We happen to be having dinner at the house at noon. Although you sisters are close friends with our Feng family, you don't move around much. , I also hope that all the sisters can come and sit in the house more often if they have nothing to do. Whether it is one or two people, three or five, they are all welcome in the house. My wife and concubine have also said before that they will come during the meal. Meet the girls,..."
All the girls had something in their minds and their faces were slightly hot. What is this?
