Chapter 198

"It's not a good thing. I hope Uncle Chen likes it."

Xiaojiu stood next to her mother, looking at the gift box with great anticipation. When she went to her house two nights ago, Yuezhu wouldn't even let her touch it.

Chen Jiuying made a comeback today, defeating that stinky girl and relieving her frustration.

"Daddy, please open it and take a look. This girl is so mysterious all the time. I'm almost dying of curiosity."

Chen Jiuying shook her father's arm, her face really filled with anticipation!

"Hehehe, I believe I will definitely like this gift from Yuezhu." Chen Zhengxun also had a smile on his face. This girl is not simple. Although she only came from the village, she has a bright mind.

"Okay, okay, let's see what this amazing friend of ours, Xiaojiu, has given us!"

The few people present here are all old people. When Master Chen said this, they immediately knew that Master Chen had a high regard for this girl, and they couldn't help but become curious.

Xiao Jinyan, who was sitting calmly aside, also raised his eyebrows, glanced at Li Yuezhu slightly, then lowered his eyes, lowered his head and played with the tea cup in his hand.

Mr. Chen took the gift box. There was no decoration on the box at all. It was simply considered simple, let alone gorgeous.

Both those on the stage and those off the stage looked at the red box in Master Chen's hand with great curiosity. It was flat, small, and nothing unusual.

When Mr. Chen opened the box, there was nothing surprising inside, but a book.

This is not so much a book as it is a few sheets of paper. This book is really too thin, and looking at the texture of the book, it cannot be said that it is so precious.

"This is?"

Chen Zhengxun took out the book, and the people in the audience couldn't help but sigh. Girls are girls after all, especially girls in this village who have never seen the world. He should at least get to know Mrs. Chen.

Master Chen didn't have the kind of book he wanted, so how could he be so rare about it? Giving books is the most unpleasant thing.

Putting aside the fact that the donated books can reflect your personal accomplishments, Master Chen’s home is an ocean of books. Many of the best books can be found here.

"Oh, this girl is so flattering that she slaps her on the horse's hooves. This book gift is the most unlucky thing."

"Isn't that right? Is there any book that Master Chen wants to read? Even if he can't find it here, he can go to the palace to find it. This book is probably the one that Master Chen is least interested in."



Li Yuezhu turned a deaf ear to the comments beside him and bowed his head to Mr. Chen.

"Yue Zhu has little talent and little knowledge, and doesn't have any good gifts to give you, so I prepared a book for you. I hope you will be as blessed as the East China Sea and live longer than the Southern Mountains."

Chen Zhengxun nodded quickly and helped Li Yuezhu up, laughing and saying:

"Don't tell me these wisecracks either. I don't believe there is no truth in your book."

Chen Zhengxun also had a superficial understanding of Li Yuezhu and knew her character.

Although this girl came from the village, he really admired her strong character. This girl either didn't do anything, or she did her best. There would definitely be another mystery in this book.

Chen Zhengxun is really looking forward to it. Who says he doesn't like books? As a reader, this is probably his favorite book.

""Preface to the Lanting Collection", I have never heard of the name of this book."

Chen Zhengxun opened it happily, but was shocked by the scene in front of him.

After only reading the first page, Chen Zhengxun was attracted by the words in this book. Although the words in this book are not very neat and the fonts are of different sizes, the free and elegant words in this book are unsurpassed.

"This this……"

Chen Zhengxun's excitement cannot be expressed in words. Although he is a scholar who has read countless people and written countless papers, this book has the most beautiful handwriting he has ever seen. Even his peak work is not as good as this book.

The words above are just in case!

"In the ninth year of Yonghe, when I was in Guichou, at the beginning of late spring, I went to the Orchid Pavilion in Shanyin, Kuaiji to have a wedding ceremony..."

Chen Zhengxun was in a dazed state. He was holding the book in both hands. The leader was still trembling a little and stared at it carefully.

"The sky is clear and the air is clear, and the wind is gentle and smooth. Look up at the vastness of the universe and observe the prosperity of categories..."

Li Yuezhu stood next to Master Chen, listening to his study bit by bit, and knew that Master Chen must like this gift very much.

Also, the favorite work of the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi was passed down to future generations as a family heirloom, and was later passed to the imperial court. Countless people copied it, but no one surpassed it. This "Preface to the Lanting Collection" can be said to be rare.

A treasure is not an exaggeration.

"The future will look at the present, and the present will look at the past..."

The old men sitting below were puzzled as to whether Old Master Chen was in a daze. He was stunned and trembling all over.

"Old man Chen?"

Wang Yun couldn't help but get anxious and shouted, but Chen Zhengxun didn't answer. After reading it once, he was sweating profusely, but he couldn't bear to move his eyes and read the article again from the beginning.

Now everyone here also knew that something was fishy, ​​and all of them were stunned. The scene became extremely quiet, and everyone listened to Chen Zhengxun mumbling to himself.

"This place has high mountains, lush forests and bamboos, and there are clear and turbulent streams, which reflect the left and right, making them look like flowing water. They are the second best..."

Chen Zhengxun's voice had begun to tremble.

"Although there is no grandeur of silk and bamboo orchestral music, one drink and one chant are enough to express the secret love..."

Now not only his voice, but his whole body began to tremble with excitement.

"Life and death are big things, isn't it painful?" When Chen Zhengxun read this, he was sweating all over his body, but he didn't realize it, still immersed in the ocean of this book.

Although Chen Zhengxun's voice was very low, the important officials sitting on the stage heard it clearly.

After reading it again in front of Mr. Chen, his eyes lit up and he decided to start over again.

Chen Jiuying couldn't bear it anymore. It was his father's birthday, so no matter how much the old man liked this poem, he couldn't keep reading it.

"Daddy, daddy, what are you doing?"

Chen Jiuying vigorously poked Mr. Chen's spine from behind.

Chen Zhengxun suddenly came back to his senses from his own world. He looked back at his daughter, his eyes were so bright that Chen Jiuying trembled.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Everyone is here looking at you."

Chen Jiuying whispered to his father that Chen Zhengxun doted on his daughter because he was born in old age.

I saw that Chen Zhengxun's face was red and full of energy, like a young man in his twenties. After he came to his senses, he quickly stuffed the book into his arms and covered it up so that no one else could see it.

"Hey, you old man, you have something hidden. I said that the poem you just read, we old guys all heard it. This is really a good thing. What is it?

Who could write such a masterpiece?"

The old guys sitting on the stage and Chen Zhengxun are also colleagues. They have known each other for such a long time and are quite familiar with each other. Naturally, there is no burden when talking.
