The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Yan Laoer hurried outside to fetch a basin of water, mixed it with hot water and brought it in.

When Master Tian saw it, he walked over and washed his face and hands.

After wiping the cloth towel, Yan Lao Er threw it directly into the basin.

Grandpa Tian's eyelids twitched.

After listening to him let the servants outside take it and wash it clean, his face softened a lot.

Sit upright and ask Yan Er to open the bookcase and carefully look at the books inside.

At first glance, it was Yan Huaiwen's handwriting.

Pointing to another slightly straightforward commentary, he asked, "Who wrote this?"

Yan's second child looked over: "It's my second child."

Elder Tian let out an ooh and said, "It's your girl."

He was very impressed with the girl, the Yan family raised a daughter, which was really different from other families.

After picking up the book, Mr. Tian was very serious.

From shallow to deep, explain one by one.

After a short period, he paused and asked Yan Er.

Repeat this several times.

Grandpa Tian was secretly amazed.

This Yan Er doesn't seem like he's out of his mind.

It's not very well learned.

But soon, Mr. Tian knew the root of the problem.

Yan Er can understand the meaning of the text, but it is really difficult to recite it.

As he himself said, he has to memorize it many times, and after he has recited it, he has to keep looking at Shen Ji.

It is not clear to bite the text and sentence.

The words are too straightforward and cumbersome...

If you can't memorize it, just write it several times.

If you can't memorize it any more, write it down a few more times.

It's okay to be straightforward and cumbersome. In the future, he will know that copying books is hard, and he will know that two words can sum up the meaning of a whole sentence, how happy he is.

Therefore, the first homework left by Mr. Tian to Mr. Yan was to copy books.

Yan Laoer was carrying the bookcase, not forgetting to take the waste paper by the wall, and walked out of the back office's study in a daze.

The servant outside the door saw him, and kindly reminded him: "The waste paper in the master's study can't be kept, it needs to be burned."

He realized what was going on, and saw the cloth towel that the boy had just washed for the old man, so he had an idea, scooped water from the water tank in the yard and drenched the paper...

Go back with the waste paper still dripping.

Yan Lao Er suddenly stomped his feet and said "Hey".

The steps become brisk.

I muttered to myself, beaming with joy.

"In addition to burning the waste paper, it can also be poured with water. Who stipulates that copying can only be done with a brush and not with charcoal. Haha, it's really me!"

When I arrived at the school in the afternoon, several students expressed their amazement at Yan Lao Er's copying of books with charcoal pens.

Why didn't they think of it earlier!

It saves effort and paper, which is great!

The elder took the time to come over to explain the article to everyone. Seeing this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything. He assigned homework to others and said that it would be handed in tomorrow morning.

Yan Laoer focused on copying books, and the speed of charcoal pen was far faster than that of brush, and he finished it very quickly.

He felt that he was different from these people, that he didn't come here to study seriously, and he could leave in a few days, so he thought of leaving early.

After thinking about it, he felt that there was no problem, so he ran back to his residence.

Start tinkering with the evening meal.

What Yan Lao Er thought was that he would not stay in the official office for a few days, and try to cook something delicious and convenient for his eldest nephew.

When he is away, the eldest nephew can take care of himself.

He had just washed the dishes and borrowed the servant from the stove to return them.

Yan Lao Er said politely to let him have dinner, how could the yamen servant respond, he hurriedly said no, and thanked him again and again.

"By the way, Second Brother Yan, the blacksmith asked if he could sell this stove to takeaway. If so, he is willing to give some money."

Unexpectedly, there is such a windfall.

He thought of the school and the study of the master of the Hou Yamen. After a while, it would not be very warm even with a brazier on.

If you can put a stove, it will be convenient to keep warm and drink hot water.

"Forget about the money, can you give me two stoves?"

The yamen servant asked if he was going to be placed in the school and given to the elder...

Silently gave him a thumbs up.

Look at the brains of Brother Yan, how clever they are, no wonder they can get in front of the old man, this flattery is so appropriate and natural.

"Okay, I'll go talk to him."

That afternoon, a similar stove was used in the study of the Grand Master’s back office.

Yan Xiangheng was fed vegetables and rice by his uncle after school.

A combination of green vegetables, rice and pork slices sprinkled with his own unique seasoning.

Just two words, absolutely!

Naturally, Yan Lao Er couldn't leave Mr. Tian behind.

Carrying a bookcase and food box.

Bringing his homework and delicious food, he came to Houya again.

Before entering the study, Yan Lao Er pulled the boy aside and gave him a piece of fragrant soap.

Tell him to use this to wash the cloth towels and handkerchiefs of the Grand Master in the future.

Turning around and entering the room, he saw Mr. Tian tinkering with the stove.

He first walked to the basin stand and put away another piece of fragrant soap that he brought.

That's when I came to help.

"Master, I can't do it, I'll set you on fire again." Yan Lao Er hastily stopped Mr. Tian's dangerous action, searched around but couldn't find the iron hook, and thought that this blacksmith is also, why didn't he provide a complete set, so he went From the firewood on one side, I found a branch with a suitable thickness, lifted the iron ring at an angle, and put it on quickly and steadily.

There is also a kettle next to it, the water is already filled, and Yan Laoer puts it on it.

I checked the iron cylinder of the smoke again, not to mention, the blacksmith's craftsmanship is quite good, and the iron cylinders are connected tightly.

Both of them fiddled with the stove and inevitably got some ashes.

Yan Laoer went out to fetch water naturally, and as soon as Mr. Tian came over, he saw the piece of fragrant soap.

He washed his hands as usual, and took a new cloth towel handed over by Yan Er.

Master Tian was silent.

"My lord, I made rice buns and brought you two. You old man should try something new. You can't wait. You have to eat it quickly, or it will get cold in a while."

Mr. Tian sat, watching Yan Er open the bookcase, and took out the so-called rice bag that he had never seen before.

Two don't sound like much, but this rice bag is actually a bit bigger.

Adult palm size.

Yan Er also brought a rough porcelain sea bowl, and even the chopsticks were ready.

Send it to him, just wait for him to open his mouth.

Grandpa Tian: ...

I took a bite with chopsticks.

It turns out that there is rice in it, but it is fragrant.

Take another bite, huh? have meat?

Chewing carefully, the aroma is very confusing!

Before I knew it, I finished eating a rice bag.

Master Tian ate the second one.

Yan Laoer took out the books he had copied, as well as the books for class.

Then he picked up the waste paper on the ground, folded it and put it aside temporarily.

The water boiled, he scalded the cup first, and then poured a glass of water for the old man.

Mr. Tian really felt that Yan Er had put all his thoughts elsewhere.

Look at him one by one, he has winks, he can take care of people, he understands human feelings, and he can do things.

As for the stove, he could obviously get some money, but he didn't. He asked for two more, not for himself.

His old man misses him well, the classmates he just met today miss him well, the servants in the government office miss him well, and the blacksmith still misses him well.

It cannot be bought with mere money.

That Xiangpanzi is even more interesting, don't think he doesn't know, it's Yan Er who hates him, hum!

He asked him to copy books, this Yan Er is so good, he is used to being lazy, so he came up with a way to deal with it by writing with charcoal pens.

He also dismissed get out of class early in a grand manner.

If it is said that he is going to do something serious, it is actually going back to cook.

But Yan Er's craftsmanship is really good.

This rice bag is very popular with him.

Work harder, the Grand Master will be taken down soon~( # ^.^ # )~
